In order to clarify the runoff mechanism in urban catchments area, field observation of discharge and application of runoff analysis to the urban catchments are reported in this paper. Land-use in urban area has become more complicated by urbanization during the last several decades. As a result of urbanization, the peak discharge of flood increases and the concentration time of flood decreases in urban rivers. In addition, large amount of the population and property are concentrated in floodplains which have the large potential of inundation in Japan. It makes flood disasters in urban area more serious problem. However, discharge data in urban catchments in Japan are very few. In this paper, field observation of discharge are carried out and runoff analysis method for land surface area based on morphological and geological properties is applied several urban catchments to evaluate the effects of urbanization on runoff in urban area.
