<Para ID="Par1">According to EU flood risks directive, flood hazard maps should include information on hydraulic characteristics of vulnerable locations, i.e. the inundated areas, water depths and velocities. These features can be assessed by the use of advanced hydraulic modelling tools which are presented in...</para>

A modern real time flood forecasting system requires itsmathematical model(s) to handle highly complex rainfall runoffprocesses. Uncertainty in real time flood forecasting willinvolve a variety of components such as measurement noise fromtelemetry systems, inadequacy of the models, insufficiency...

Computers have become the main tool used in Ground Water Quality Management (GWQM). Computer software has been developed to encapsulate, process and present information on groundwater pollution problems. Continuing demands for more efficient handling of information have resulted in increasing...
