Water Flow Forecasting and River Simulation for Flood Risk Analysis

The paper presents the state-of-the-art in flood forecasting and simulation applied to a river flood analysis and risk prediction. Different water flow forecasting and river simulation models are analysed. An advanced river flood forecasting and modelling approach developed within the ongoing project INFROM is described. It provides an integrated procedure for river flow forecasting and simulation advanced by integration of different models for improving predictions of the river flood risk outputs. A case study on river flow modelling and simulation for river flood risk analysis is give
