Flooding and flood water storage in karst systems of the mediterranean region

HIGHLIGHTS

  • What: In this study, four categories of flood water storage and management examples are presented and discussed on the basis of selected case studies to raise awareness of karstspecific hydrological responses to heavy rainfall events and flood generation and to contribute to a better understanding of flood management. Short flood periods and rapid dispersion of water through highly porous alluvial deposits are the main reasons why such systems, with barriers above the excavated riverbed that prevent water from flowing downstream, can be considered a viable solution. The aim of the dam is to control the flow of . . .
