River water-level prediction is crucial for mitigating flood damage caused by torrential rainfall. In this paper, we attempt to predict river water levels using a deep learning model based on radar rainfall data instead of from upstream hydrological stations. A incorporating two-dimensional convolutional neural network (2D-CNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM) constructed exploit geographical temporal features data, transfer method newly defined flow–distance matrix presented. The results our evaluation the Oyodo basin in Japan show that presented measurements has good accuracy case rain, with Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) value 0.86 Kling–Gupta (KGE) 0.83 6-h-ahead forecast top-four peak height cases, which comparable conventional (NSE = 0.84 KGE 0.83). It also confirmed maintains its performance even when amount training site reduced; values NSE 0.82 were achieved reducing torrential-rain-period 12 3 periods (with 105 other rivers learning). demonstrate few rain at location potentially enable us if stations have not been installed location.

In a climate change scenario where extreme precipitation events occur more frequently and intensely, risk assessment plays critical role in ensuring the safety operational efficiency of facilities. This case study uses combination multi-criteria analysis approach hydrological studies that use machine learning algorithms to simulate new rainfall order estimate flooding on railroads. Risk variables, including terrain, drainage capability, accumulated flow, land cover, will be weighed using multicriteria approach. A methodical evaluation most vulnerable locations railroad network possible thanks these parameters based geographic information system (GIS) meantime, historical precipitation, balance data used calibrate validate models. The database required for model can created with data. research regions are situated densely rail-networked state Minas Gerais. geographical climatic diversity Gerais makes it perfect place test suggested approaches. models evaluated included linear regression, random forest, decision tree, support vector machines. Among models, Linear Regression emerged as best-performing an R2 value 0.999998, mean squared error (MSE) 0.018672, low tendency overfitting (0.000011).

Abstract Floods are natural disasters with significant economic and infrastructural impacts. Assessing flood susceptibility in mountainous urban regions is particularly challenging due to the complicated interaction which structures terrain affect behavior. This study employs two ensemble machine learning algorithms, Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) Random Forest (RF), develop maps for Hunza-Nagar region, has been experiencing frequent flooding past three decades. An unsteady flow simulation carried out HEC-RAS utilizing a 100-year return period hydrograph as an input boundary condition, output of provided spatial inundation extents necessary developing inventory. Ten explanatory factors, including climatic, geological, geomorphological features namely elevation, slope, curvature, topographic wetness index (TWI), normalized difference vegetation (NDVI), land use cover (LULC), rainfall, lithology, distance roads rivers considered mapping. For inventory, random sampling technique adopted create repository non-flood points, incorporating ten geo-environmental conditioning factors. The models’ accuracy assessed using area under curve (AUC) receiver operating characteristics (ROC). prediction rate AUC values 0.912 RF 0.893 XGBoost, also demonstrating superior performance accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, kappa evaluation metrics. Consequently, model selected represent map area. resulting will assist national disaster management infrastructure development authorities identifying high susceptible zones carrying early mitigation actions future floods.

Abstract Among natural hazards, floods pose the greatest threat to lives and livelihoods. To reduce flood impacts, short-term forecasting can contribute early warnings that provide communities with time react. This manuscript explores how machine learning (ML) support forecasting. Using two methods [strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats (SWOT) comparative performance analysis] for different forecast lead times (1–6, 6–12, 12–24, 24–48 h), we evaluate of models in 94 journal papers from 2001 2023. SWOT reveals best was produced by hybrid, random forest (RF), long memory (LSTM), artificial neural network (ANN), adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) approaches. The analysis, meanwhile, favors convolutional network, ANFIS, multilayer perceptron, k-nearest neighbors algorithm (KNN), LSTM, ANN, vector (SVM) at 1–6 h; LSTM 6–12 SVM, RF 12–24 hybrid h. In general, approaches consistently perform well across all times. Trends such as hybridization, model selection, input data decomposition seem improve accuracy models. Furthermore, effective stand-alone ML RF, genetic algorithm, KNN, better outcomes through hybridization other By including parameters environmental, socio-economical, climatic parameters, produce more accurate forecasting, making it warning operational purposes.
