Incorporating dynamic ice jam modelling into flood risk assessment and mapping

加拿大的洪水风险评估和制图传统上没有包括冰塞洪水 成分然而，将洪水风险管理扩展到包括冰的影响，对于真正的评估至关重要 洪水风险。 这是公共和私营部门之间的一项新的研究合作。Karl-Erich Lindenschelor， 来自萨斯喀彻温大学全球水安全研究所， 建模和洪水风险评估。工业合作伙伴Stantec是一家建筑和工程 为政府机构、房地产开发商、保险公司提供技术支持的公司 和社区对自然和人为危害和灾害的认识。Stantec的阿尔伯塔办事处将 我想扩展他们的咨询范围，将冰塞洪水事件纳入洪水风险评估， 绘图功能，这在加拿大是一种新颖的方法。 这项研究的具体目标是： - 利用河冰模型工具，扩大目前冰塞洪水频率分析技术， 凌汛频率曲线 - 绘制各种冰塞洪水水位的洪水范围图，以评估洪水危害和风险。 - 将冰塞模型纳入洪水灾害和风险评估，为有效防洪提供基础 缓解方案。 对加拿大的好处包括：（一）为在加拿大各地设有办事处的公司提供一种新的工具， 将冰塞模型纳入洪水灾害和风险评估，以及（ii）更好地了解冰的风险 堵塞水浸对财产和人命的影响，并制订有效的防洪和防洪策略。

Flood risk assessment and mapping in Canada has not traditionally incorporated an ice jam flooding component. Extending flood risk management to include ice impacts is, however, crucial for a true assessment of flood risk. This is a new research collaboration between the public and private sector. Karl-Erich Lindenschmidt, from the Global Institute for Water Security at the University of Saskatchewan, brings expertise in river ice modelling and flood risk assessment. The industrial partner, Stantec, is an architecture and engineering company that provides technical support to government agencies, property developers, insurance companies and communities regarding natural and manmade hazards and disasters. The Alberta offices of Stantec would like to extend their consulting repertoire to include ice jam flooding events in their flood risk assessment and mapping capabilities, which is a novel approach in Canada. The specific objectives of this research are to: -extend current ice-jam flood frequency analysis techniques using river ice modelling tools to develop an ice-affected flood frequency curve -map flood extents of various ice jam flood water levels to assess the flood hazard and risk. -incorporate ice jam modelling into flood hazard and risk assessment to provide a basis for effective flood mitigation programs. Benefits to Canada include: (i) provision of a novel tool for a company with offices across Canada to incorporate ice jam modelling into flood hazard and risk assessment and (ii) better understanding the risk of ice jam flooding to property and human life and to develop effective flood mitigation and prevention strategies.
