The factors used for the formulation of the EVI were forest factor (FF), hydrological factor (HF) and environmental factor (EF), and used the Itupararanga environmental protection area (EPA) as a case study. The results showed that for the years studied (2012 and 2019), most forest fragments were classified as having a very low FF. Almost half of the water bodies presented a very low HF in 2012, which was also the case in 2019. Most areas of the EPA were classified as having a medium EF in 2012, while in 2019 they were classified as low. From these indices, in the two years, it was observed that most areas were classified with a very low EVI. Despite the very low EVI, it was observed that fragments with areas smaller than 50 hectares were suppressed. Therefore, it is necessary to encourage the creation of public policies aimed at the conservation of areas subject to anthropogenic pressure and restoration of forests in suppressed areas.Keywords: Atlantic Forestforest fragmentsenvironmental fragilityfuzzy logicDisclaimerAs a service to authors and researchers we are providing this version of an accepted manuscript (AM).

The biogeography of the riparian corridor, factors responsible for the modification of riparian vegetation, and causes of riparian disturbance were examined. Twelve study sites were randomly selected from where reaches were identified. The riparian corridor extents were delimited from the bank of the river to the uppermost point within reaches. Species diversity indices were computed while bank height, width, and average depth were measured. Also, cross-sectional area and river discharge were derived along each riparian zone using standard measurement techniques. The ecological values and threat severity along each riparian zone were assessed following the RARC model. The ecological values and disturbance level revealed r as −0.7(p < 0.05). The variation in species composition along the river orders suggests that the first-order streams have the highest number of taxa. The level of ecological destruction is fairly low in the first-order streams and increases as order increases. This study concludes that higher-order rivers have low diversity, low ecological values, and consequently, relatively poor health, especially when under severe anthropogenic pressure.","PeriodicalId":14344,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of River Basin Management","volume":"21 1","pages":"539 - 550"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59982233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Raw quantitative precipitation forecasts (QPFs) from the numerical weather prediction (NWP) models are known to be error-prone. In this study, sub-basin averaged deterministic QPFs with five-day lead times from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) are post-processed through the Seasonally Coherent Calibration (SCC) model for the Narmada and Godavari River basins of India. The SCC model incorporates seasonal climatology from long observations into forecasts and produces calibrated forecasts based on a joint probability model. The SCC model results are compared with the post-processed forecasts from the state-of-the-art Quantile Mapping (QM) method. The results suggest that the probabilistic ensemble forecasts generated from the SCC model have improved skill throughout five-day lead times. Further, the application of SCC-calibrated precipitation forecasts is demonstrated using the Soil & Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) to generate streamflow forecasts.","PeriodicalId":14344,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of River Basin Management","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134891950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Presidential disaster declarations have issued increasingly almost every year in Iowa for the past 30 years, indicating that the state is on the rise of flood risk. While significant scientific and technological advancement is becoming available for many flood mitigation activities, their on-the-ground consequences are hampered, among other things, by the lack of tools to quickly integrate the growing data into accessible and usable flood mitigation decisions. A multi-disciplinary approach is required, in which the underlying hydrologic processes that cause floods are closely linked with watershed-level socio-economic functions using effective collaboration tools to ensure community participation in the co-production of mitigation plans while paying attention to socio-environmental justice principles. Considering the existing limitations and needs, we conducted a flood risk assessment by utilizing geophysical and socio-economic datasets for a case study in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Flood risk outputs are generated based on three main risk groups: geophysical-based flood risk, socioeconomic risk, and combined flood risk. Our results indicate that high- and very-high-risk flood susceptibility zones are primarily located in central urban areas with lower elevations. According to overall results, a large area of Cedar Rapids consists of a medium risk level according to the flood risk map combined with the fuzzy AHP method. The results show that high and very high-risk areas are 16% of the examined area, medium, low and very low-risk areas correspond to 84%. Besides, nearly 40% of the population lives in high to very high flood risk zones.","PeriodicalId":14344,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of River Basin Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49248577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
