Abstract:Flash floods are one of the most devastating natural disasters, yet many aspects of their severity and impact are poorly understood. The recession limb is related to post-flood recovery and its impact on communities, yet it remains less documented than the rising limb of the hydrograph to predict the peak discharge and timing of floods. . This work introduces a new metric called the flash flood recovery or recoveriness, which is the potential for recovery of a watershed to pre-flood conditions. Using a compre… Show more
