Nepal Himalaya Offers Considerable Potential for Pumped Storage Hydropower
Rupesh Baniya, Rocky Talchabhadel, Jeeban Panthi +9
There is a pressing need for a transition from fossil fuel to renewable energy to meet the increasing energy demands and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The Himalayas posses…
Flood hazard model calibration using multiresolution model output
Samantha Roth, Ben Seiyon Lee, Sanjib Sharma +3
Riverine floods pose a considerable risk to many communities. Improving flood hazard projections has the potential to inform the design and implementation of flood risk management…
Trade-offs in the design and communication of flood-risk information
Courtney M. Cooper, Sanjib Sharma, Robert E. Nicholas +1
There is an increasingly urgent need to develop knowledge and practices to manage climate risks. For example, flood-risk information can inform household decisions such as purchasi…
Effects of Mixed Distribution Statistical Flood Frequency Models on Dam Safety Assessments: A Case Study of the Pueblo Dam, USA
K. J. Roop-Eckart, Sanjib Sharma, Mahkameh Zarekarizi +4
Statistical flood frequency analysis coupled with hydrograph scaling is commonly used to generate design floods to assess dam safety assessment. The safety assessments can be highl…
Machine Learning for Postprocessing Ensemble Streamflow Forecasts
Sanjib Sharma, Ganesh Raj Ghimire, Ridwan Siddique
Skillful streamflow forecasts can inform decisions in various areas of water policy and management. We integrate numerical weather prediction ensembles, distributed hydrological mo…
A safety factor approach to designing urban infrastructure for dynamic conditions
Sanjib Sharma, Ben Seiyon Lee, Robert E. Nicholas +1
Current approaches to design flood-sensitive infrastructure typically assume a stationary rainfall distribution and neglect many uncertainties. These assumptions are inconsistent w…
The FLOod Probability Interpolation Tool (FLOPIT): Improving Spatial Flood Probability Quantification and Communication Through Higher Resolution Mapping
Mahkameh Zarekarizi, K. Joel Roop-Eckart, Sanjib Sharma +1
Understanding flood probabilities is essential to making sound decisions about flood-risk management. Many people rely on flood probability maps to inform decisions about purchasin…
Weather Radar in Nepal: Opportunities and Challenges in Mountainous Region
Rocky Talchabhadel, Ganesh R. Ghimire, Sanjib Sharma +7
Extreme rainfall is one of the major causes of natural hazards (for example flood, landslide, and debris flow) in the central Himalayan region, Nepal. The performance of strategies…
Regional Flood Risk Projections under Climate Change
Sanjib Sharma, Michael Gomez, Klaus Keller +2
Flood-related risks to people and property are expected to increase in the future due to environmental and demographic changes. It is important to quantify and effectively communic…
Bayesian Characterization of Uncertainties Surrounding Fluvial Flood Hazard Estimates
Sanjib Sharma, Ganesh Raj Ghimire, Rocky Talchabhadel +5
Fluvial floods drive severe risk to riverine communities. There is a strong evidence of increasing flood hazards in many regions around the world. The choice of methods and assumpt…
