  1. Advancing Detailed Flood Hazard Identification in Alberta, Canada - Insights from Two Recent Flood Studies
    --
    doi.org/10.3390/w18131592 <-- shared paper
    --
    “The increasing frequency of floods and the severity of their consequences for public safety, infrastructure, and the economy demand improved methods for flood hazard identification. Flood studies that include flood hazard mapping are critical tools for informing emergency response and flood recovery, as well as for land use and mitigation planning. The methodology for such flood studies has evolved, and access to more powerful computational resources and high-resolution base data has contributed to the increased use of two-dimensional hydraulic modelling, where one-dimensional modelling previously was the default. However, local-scale flood studies face real-world constraints, including sparse data, challenging hydrologic conditions, and budget limitations, which can hinder the application of advanced techniques. This study addresses these challenges through innovative, practice-driven solutions in two case studies in Alberta, Canada: a small, partly channelised prairie stream network (Wolf Creek, Lacombe) and a laterally dynamic river on a distributary delta (Swan River, Kinuso). Three core components of flood hazard studies are described: field survey data collection, regional hydrology assessment, and hydraulic modelling. Key findings include demonstrating that LiDAR-derived terrain models alone cannot capture channel conveyance, the importance of low-flow calibration in the absence of high-water marks, the selection of a modelling methodology based on bathymetric and topographic features within a study area, and the development of inflow hydrographs for unsteady-state simulation in flat floodplains…”

  5. Went to Ellis bird sanctuary near Red Deer/Lacombe yesterday. Nice place, too bad merlin can't id this bird 😀 #redder #lacombe #centralab #birdwatching

  6. Great to have 7 people again at the Red Deer Tech & Code meetup. 3 new people came to see what it was about and I hope they had a good time. If you are in/near Red Deer Alberta I would be happy to see you at our next event on Oct 26.

  7. Another hot week, but instead why not come out for some cool conversation on Aug 24 for Red Deer Tech & Code meetup #8.

    If you like programming, devOps, cloud computing, tech startups, regular IT, then come on out. If you have questions don't hesitate to ask or pm me.

    Well, I think that those of us who might ordinarily enjoy a daytrip to #Lacombe should be letting their Chamber of Commerce and the businesses that we'd ordinarily patronize that we are well aware that literally referring to children as shit is just not acceptable.
