Keywords: advanced hydrological modeling and data assimilation assessment and management of flood risk in a changing environment frequency analysis of extreme events and their attribution innovation in hydrological data collection and analysis development of tools and methodologies for land planning and management

  • Flood Risk Assessment and Management: development of methodologies to assess flood risk, including hazard identification, vulnerability analysis, and risk quantification, and of strategies for flood risk reduction and management.
  • Hydrological Modeling and Simulation: development and application of hydrological models to simulate hydrological processes, such as rainfall-runoff, flood propagation, and groundwater flow, and to predict future hydrological conditions and inform decision-making.
  • Impact of Climate Change on Hydrology: analysis of the possible impacts of climate change on hydrological processes, such as changes in precipitation patterns, streamflow regimes, and extreme events; assessment of the potential consequences of climate change for water resources management and flood risk.
  • Data-Driven Approaches in Hydrology: application of data-driven techniques, such as machine learning and statistical methods, to analyze hydrological data and develop models for prediction and forecasting.
  • Remote Sensing and GIS Applications in Hydrology: utilization of remote sensing and geographic information systems (GIS) to collect and analyze hydrological data, such as water surface elevation, soil moisture, and land use/land cover, and to monitor hydrological processes and support decision-making.
