Floods are a common natural disaster caused by heavy rainfall or snowmelt that leads to overflowing rivers, streams, lakes or oceans overtaking dry land. They can cause widespread damage, injury and loss of life. Some key points about floods are:
- They occur globally in every country and region near bodies of water or with heavy precipitation. Common types include river floods, flash floods, coastal floods, and urban floods.
- Factors like intensity and duration of rainfall, soil conditions, terrain, development in floodplains, and blocked drainage systems influence flood risks and impacts.
- Floods destroy property and infrastructure, damage crops and land, and disrupt lives. They are among the most costly
Essay On Floods In Pakistan
The document discusses floods in Pakistan and Australia. It notes that in 2010, Pakistan experienced devastating floods during monsoon season that killed over 1,500 people due to poor warning systems and housing not built to withstand floods. In contrast, Australian floods in the same year only killed 35 people as houses are built to prevent flood damage and accurate warning systems allowed for evacuation. The cost of damage was also higher in Pakistan at $9 billion compared to $6 billion in Australia. While flooding occurs annually in Pakistan and enriches the soil, Australian floods are rarer events.
Water shortage in yemen
This document is a student paper on water scarcity in Yemen. It discusses how Yemen receives little rainfall, relying heavily on groundwater which is being depleted. By 2025, 85% of Yemen's population will face water shortages as the country's water reserves will only last until then. Solutions proposed include desalination, wastewater reuse, and educating citizens on water conservation. The student asks if water shortages could potentially kill humans.

Worksheet on causes of flood (notes)
Floods occur when land is submerged by excessive water, such as from heavy rainfall, snow melt, high tides, or overflowing rivers and lakes. They have natural causes like storms, rainfall, snow melt, and atmospheric processes; and human causes involving deforestation, urban development, and greenhouse gas emissions. Deforestation reduces vegetation that intercepts rainfall, increasing surface runoff. Urbanization clears land and replaces vegetation with impermeable surfaces, also boosting surface runoff. Greenhouse gases cause global warming which increases heavy rainfall and raises sea levels. Human activities have contributed to more frequent and severe flooding.

This document provides information about natural hazards and disasters. It discusses different types of natural events such as volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, and landslides that shape the Earth. It defines natural hazards as events that have potential to damage life and property, and natural disasters as hazards that cause significant fatalities or property damage. Examples of different types of hazards are also given, including climatic, tectonic, geomorphological, and technological hazards caused by human activity. Specific historic disasters like Hurricane Katrina and the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami are discussed. Causes and impacts of flooding are explained in depth.
Floods
Floods are a common natural disaster in India that occur annually in many areas. They can be caused by factors like heavy rainfall, snowmelt, dam failures, and urbanization increasing surface runoff. To control floods, methods are used like building dams and pumping stations to control water levels, constructing barriers like levees and flood walls, altering river channels by straightening or widening them, implementing land use zoning near floodplains, and taking emergency measures during floods. Countries like the US also extensively use strategies such as levees along the Mississippi River to prevent flooding in communities.
Essay On Floods
Thousands of years ago, rivers would flood plains and valleys, depositing rich soil that made some areas good for early civilization. The most important early civilizations developed along flood plains of rivers like the Indus, Nile, Yellow River, and Tigris and Euphrates. Even though floods occur everywhere, there are four main types: river floods, flash floods, coastal floods, and urban floods. China experienced one of the deadliest floods in history in 1887 when the Yellow River flooded, killing at least 900,000 people. In 1889, a dam break in Pennsylvania caused the Johnstown Flood and extensive damage.

weather hazards
This document discusses various types of weather hazards including hurricanes, tornadoes, thunderstorms, hail, winds, winter weather, droughts, floods, frost, and tropical cyclones. It provides details on the causes and impacts of each hazard, particularly how they affect agriculture through damage to crops, livestock, and infrastructure. Specific historic droughts, floods, and cyclones in India are also outlined that have resulted in widespread deaths and destruction.
Flash Floods
Flash floods are sudden floods caused by heavy rain or dam failures that occur quickly in a small area. They can move large objects and destroy buildings. Common causes are heavy rainfall over 1 inch per hour, saturated ground, and rain in uphill areas. Effects include loss of life, environmental damage from pollution, and millions in property damage. They frequently occur in areas with steep terrain and bare ground and reports have increased in the US due to better reporting. A 2009 flash flood in Kentuckiana was caused by over 14 inches of rain in under an hour from a thunderstorm. It caused widespread flooding, closed the University of Louisville for $15 million in damages, and disrupted power for 20,000 customers.
Flood
Floods are a common natural disaster in India that occur when bodies of water overflow their normal boundaries due to heavy rainfall or snow/ice melt. There are several types of floods including flash floods caused by intense rainfall in mountainous areas, river floods along large rivers, coastal floods due to storm surges and tsunamis, and urban floods when rainfall cannot be absorbed in urban areas. Floods can damage property and infrastructure, spread disease, and disrupt communities but may also provide benefits by recharging groundwater or increasing soil fertility. Prevention methods include coastal defenses, town planning, retaining walls, dams, and increasing vegetation cover. States frequently affected by floods in India include West Bengal, Odisha, Andhra Pradesh,
Flood
Floods occur when water overflows or breaks levees and causes water to escape its usual boundaries. There are several principal types of floods including areal, riverine, estuarine, coastal, and catastrophic floods. Floods can cause primary effects like physical damage, secondary effects like diseases and food shortages, and long-term economic impacts. Flood control involves defenses like levees, reservoirs, and emergency measures. Major floods throughout history have caused massive loss of life.

Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Indonesia experiences two main types of flooding. Long-lasting river floods, which are often influenced by tides, generally occur in large islands with large river basins that have steep slopes and long, flat, and low floodplains. Flash floods typically inundate small islands in eastern Indonesia that have small and steep mountainous river basin.
