Studies conducted paddy rice cultivation show that flooded reduced conditions neutralize pH but reversible upon draining soil. In soil, nitrogen cycling linked decreases oxygen, accumulation ammonium, volatilization ammonia. Ammonium primary form inorganic porewaters. floodplains, nitrate removal enhanced high denitrification intermittent provides necessary anaerobic conditions. soils, reductive dissolution minerals release phosphorus (P) into solution. Phosphorus mobilized events, leading increased availability first weeks waterlogging, generally time.

Abstract. There is serious concern that the hazard, or probability, of river floods increasing over time. Starting from narratives are sometimes discussed in public, article addresses three hypotheses. The first suggests land-use changes, such as deforestation, urbanisation and soil compaction by agriculture, increase flood hazards. This review finds effects on particularly pronounced small catchments since permeability plays an important role infiltration at this scale. For regional floods, most extreme events, land use usually not control, areas saturation play a greater runoff generation, which less dependent permeability. second hypothesis hydraulic interventions structures, training, levees dams, structures have greatest impact events medium magnitude, associated with return periods tens to hundreds years, their local. Long-term interactions between humans must be taken into account when predicting future third climate change increases hazard. that, few hectares, hazards may due convective storms. In large catchments, where occur, changes necessarily directly related precipitation, nor they rising air temperatures, but determined seasonal interplay moisture, snow precipitation via generation. Increases decreases been observed worldwide. It concluded significant progress has made recent years understanding use, changing crucial consider all factors risk management communicate them general public nuanced way.

Climate change is expected to increase heavy rainfall with concomitant increases in flooding1. Causes of increased include the higher water-holding capacity a warmer atmosphere and changes atmospheric circulation patterns2, which may translate into future most Europe3. However, gathering evidence on time evolution past has been hampered by data limitations measurement uncertainties, particular for short durations, such as 1 h. Here we show an 8% daily 15% hourly over last four decades analysing new dataset comprising 883 stations Austria from 1900 2023. These are fully consistent between two independent networks occurred after retarding phase 1960 1980. Hourly aligned temperature sensitivity 7% per °C warming, line Clausius–Clapeyron scaling. Daily changes, however, indices little correlation air temperature, suggests bigger role modes than previously thought. The remarkably observed flood about large catchments. similarly small catchments, although stronger (25% decades). adaptation measures management therefore be more pressing rivers draining smaller catchment areas rivers. Long-term precipitation different climatic mechanisms emphasize need adaptation, especially catchments affected rainfall.

In order to examine the relationship between rainfall return periods and flood periods, design storm approach is compared rainfall–runoff continuous simulation frequency analysis approach. The former was based on event-based hydrological simulations, while latter simulations analysis. All were undertaken employing HEC-HMS software. For analysis, Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) probability distribution used. both Type I (Gumbel) GEV theoretical distributions used each other.
