Petrucci, O. ; Polemio, M. ; Pasqua, A.A.
Keywords
floods
Abstract discussed together with rainfall regime and trend (for the period in which data are available) and with main modifications due to variations in population number. The aim was to assess if the frequency of damaging floods is changing and if there is a role

Pluvial flood hazard in the city of Rome (Italy) [28-Jun-2017]
Di Salvo, Cristina ; Ciotoli, Giancarlo ; Pennica, Francesco ; Cavinato, Gian Paolo
Abstract
parameters have been evaluated: (1) susceptibility, defined as the probability of a flood occurring in a certain area (‘flood-prone areas’) which depends on the ground morphology (i.e. presence of depressions, fill volume of depressions) and spatial density

Abstract
the relative signals of flood vulnerability of 16 catchments in northern Sinai. The geospatial technique has been applied to process the digital elevation models (DEMs) in order to produce different analysis maps. Basic geometries, in addition to several morpho

Historical floods and a recent extreme rainfall event in the Murgia karstic environment (Southern Italy) [2010]

Keywords

Abstract processes can be identified in karsts. We consider the recharge-related flooding of a bare karst, with a case study of a Mediterranean area dominated by semi-arid climate. In these cases floods are rare, short, and sudden but the effects are often very

Damaging hydrogeological events in Calabria (Italy): new results of an ongoing historical research [6-Sep-2011]
Polemio, M. ; Pasqua, A.A. ; Petrucci, O.
Abstract
Damaging Hydrogeological Events (DHEs) are episodes of severe weather conditions characterised by strong winds, heavy rainfall, landslides, flooding, and sea storms. Each type of phenomenon developing during DHEs is characterized by a proper dynamic
