This study describes the development and application of a 2D rasterbased diffusion wave model (FloodMap), either looselycoupled or tightlycoupled to a 1D river flow model, to determine patterns of fluvial flood inundation in urban areas using highresolution topographic data. Applications of the basic model showed that even relatively small changes in model resolution have considerable effects on the predicted inundation extent and timing of flood inundation. Timing sensitivity would be expected given the relatively poor representation of inertial processes in a diffusion wave model. A sub grid scale wetting and drying correction approach was developed and tested for use with the basic model. The method recognises explicitly that representations of sub grid scale topography using roughness parameters will provide an inadequate representation of the effects of structural elements on the floodplain as such elements not only act as momentum sinks, but also have mass blockage effects. This approach is found to give significantly better prediction of fluvial flood inundation in urban areas as compared with traditional calibration of sub gridscale effects using roughness parameter.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Oahu or Oahu, known as The Gathering Place, is the third largest of the Hawaiian Islands and most populous of the islands in the State of Hawaii. The state capital Honolulu is located on the southeast coast. Including small closein offshore islands such as Ford Island and the islands in Kaneohe Bay and off the eastern coast, it has a total land area of 596.7 square miles (1,545.4 km2), making it the 20th largest island in the United States. It is also the most populous island in the Western Hemisphere that neither contains a national capital nor possesses a road or rail connection to a national capital.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Un tsunami ou razdemaree est une onde provoquee par un mouvement rapide dun grand volume deau (ocean ou mer). Ce mouvement est en general du a un seisme, une eruption volcanique sousmarine de type explosif ou bien un glissement de terrain sousmarin ou aerien (type rockslide) de grande ampleur. Un impact meteoritique peut aussi en etre la cause, de meme quune explosion atomique sousmarine.
