This open access book brings together research studies,
developments, and application-related flash flood topics on wadi
systems in arid regions. The major merit of this comprehensive book
is its focus on research and technical papers as well as case study
applications in different regions worldwide that cover many topics
and answer several scientific questions. The book chapters
comprehensively and significantly highlight different scientific
research disciplines related to wadi flash floods, including
climatology, hydrological models, new monitoring techniques, remote
sensing techniques, field investigations, international
collaboration projects, risk assessment and mitigation,
sedimentation and sediment transport, and groundwater quality and
quantity assessment and management. In this book, the contributing
authors (engineers, researchers, and professionals) introduce their
recent scientific findings to develop suitable, applicable, and
innovative tools for forecasting, mitigation, and water management
as well as society development under seven main research themes as
follows: 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 The
book includes selected high-quality papers from five series of the
International Symposium on Flash Floods in Wadi Systems (ISFF) that
were held in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2020 in Japan, Egypt,
Oman, Morocco, and Japan, respectively. These collections of
chapters could provide valuable guidance and scientific content not
only for academics, researchers, and students but also for
decision-makers in the MENA region and worldwide.
