This comprehensive open-access book brings together a wealth of research studies, developments, and applications related to flash floods in wadi systems in arid regions. Its primary merit lies in its focus on both research and technical papers, as well as case study applications across various regions worldwide, covering a wide range of topics and addressing numerous scientific questions.
The book chapters provide a comprehensive and substantial overview of diverse scientific research disciplines pertaining to wadi flash floods, encompassing climatology, hydrological models, innovative monitoring techniques, remote sensing methodologies, field investigations, international collaboration projects, risk assessment and mitigation strategies, sedimentation and sediment transport processes, and groundwater quality and quantity assessment and management.
In this book, the contributing authors, comprising engineers, researchers, and professionals, present their latest scientific findings to develop suitable, applicable, and innovative tools for forecasting, mitigation, and water management, as well as societal development, across seven main research themes:
Part 1: Wadi Flash Flood Challenges and Strategies
Part 2: Hydrometeorology and Climate Changes
Part 3: Rainfall–Runoff Modeling and Approaches
Part 4: Disaster Risk Reduction and Mitigation
Part 5: Reservoir Sedimentation and Sediment Yield
Part 6: Groundwater Management
Part 7: Application and Case Studies
To enhance the value and usefulness of this resource, the book includes selected high-quality papers from five series of the International Symposium on Flash Floods in Wadi Systems (ISFF), which were held in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2020, respectively, in Japan, Egypt, Oman, Morocco, and Japan. These collections of chapters offer valuable guidance and scientific content not only to academics, researchers, and students but also to practitioners, policymakers, and stakeholders involved in the field of flash flood management and wadi systems.
