River widening, defined as a lateral expansion of the channel, is a critical process that
maintains fluvial ecosystems and is part of the regular functioning of rivers. However, in …

Prior research confirmed the substantial bias from using precipitation‐based intensity‐
duration‐frequency curves (PREC‐IDF) in design flood estimates and proposed next …

Climate change can result in changes to floods and flood regimes, but the relationship
between floods and climate change is complex and poorly understood. The flood regime …

Mountain snowpacks are transitioning to experience less snowfall and more rainfall as the
climate warms, creating more persistent low-to no-snow conditions. This precipitation shift …

River floods are generated by various processes that, if disregarded, may induce errors in
flood hazard assessment. This is particularly relevant where events extraordinarily larger …

Abstract Changes in annual maximum flood (AMF), which are usually detected using simple
trend tests (eg, Mann‐Kendall test (MKT)), are expected to change design‐flood estimates …

Moderate to high severity wildfire can abruptly alter watershed properties and enhance
extreme hydrologic responses such as debris flows and floods. The compounding effects of …

Estimating river flood risks under climate change is challenging, largely due to the
interacting and combined influences of various flood-generating drivers. However, a more …

A higher chance of extreme floods is often revealed by a probability distribution with a
slower decay and a heavier tail. There are numerous and conflicting findings in previous …

In the arid and semiarid southwestern United States, both cool-and warm-season storms
result in flash flooding, although the former storms have been much less studied. Here, we …
