Book excerpt: Papers and discussions at this seminar focus on the role of federal, state, and local agencies and the private sector in the planning, implementation, and operation of local flood warning - emergency response plans. Specific objectives were to: 1) better define the Corps of Engineers' role in planning and implementation of local flood warning - emergency response plans and 2) identify needed research activities. Local flood warning - emergency response plans consist of coordinated actions involving flood detection and forecasting, warning dissemination, emergency response, post-flood recovery and reoccupation, and continuous plan management. The flood warning - emergency response plans consist of hardware, technical activities, and formal and informal arrangements and commitments to performance in which the human element is a vital part are unique characteristics of local flood warning - emergency response plans that differentiate them from other flood loss reduction measures. Primary research needs identified by the seminar were means of tailoring flood forecasting related hardware and software to local community conditions and requirements, better forecasting analysis capabilities, and guidance for procedures for determining the feasibility of local flood warning - emergency preparedness plans. Standards for precipitation and streamflow monitoring hardware and data communications are needed to enable consistency in equipment for flood forecasting operations.

Book excerpt: Recent flood events in Europe, the USA and elsewhere have shown the devastating impact that flooding can have on people and property. Flood warning and forecasting systems provide a well-established way to help to reduce the effects of flooding by allowing people to be evacuated from areas at risk, and for measures to be taken to reduce damage to property. With sufficient warning, temporary defences (sandbags, flood gates etc) can also be installed, and river control structures operated to mitigate the effects of flooding. Many countries and local authorities now operate some form of flood warning system, and the underlying technology requires knowledge across a range of technical areas, including rainfall and tidal detection systems, river and coastal flood forecasting models, flood warning dissemination systems, and emergency response procedures. This book provides a comprehensive account of the flood forecasting, warning and emergency response process, including techniques for predicting the development of flood events, and for issuing appropriate warnings. Related topics, such as telemetry and information systems, and flood warning economics, are also discussed. For perhaps the first time, this book brings together in a single volume the many strands of this interesting multidisciplinary topic, and will serve as a reference for researchers, policy makers and engineers. The material on meteorological, hydrological and coastal modelling and monitoring may also be of interest to a wider audience.
