Flood Forecasting

Flood Forecasting: A Global Perspective, 2nd Edition is a reference work from Academic Press that examines hydrologic forecasting systems across national and regional scales. Tailored for academics, researchers, practitioners in hydrology and hydrometeorology, and graduate students in advanced coursework, the text details operational methods used to evaluate and predict watershed flooding.

The organizing logic connects core hydrometeorology with hydraulic and hydrologic modeling strategies. Content progresses by linking model parameter estimation with surface water routing schemes, synthesizing these components into integrated approaches for continental and global scale monitoring and prediction across varying geographic terrain.

A defining feature of this second edition is its updated information on recent advances in machine learning techniques for flood forecasting. Published as a 494-page paperback volume bearing print ISBN 9780443140099, the publication provides an essential technical framework for advanced study and practice.
