Geospatial modelling of watershed peak flood discharge in Selangor, Malaysia. (2019)
Journal Article
CHEAH, R., BILLA, L., CHAN, A., TEO, F.Y., PRADHAN, B. and ALAMRI, A.M. 2019. Geospatial modelling of watershed peak flood discharge in Selangor, Malaysia. Water [online], 11(12), article 2490. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/w11122490

Conservative peak flood discharge estimation methods such as the rational method do not take into account the soil infiltration of the precipitation, thus leading to inaccurate estimations of peak discharges during storm events. The accuracy of estim... Read More about Geospatial modelling of watershed peak flood discharge in Selangor, Malaysia..
