This study applied the Rainfall-Runoff-Inundation (RRI) model and SOBEK model to simulate flood discharges and inundation to determine the model most suitable for analysis of the study basin in terms of user friendliness, cost, type of output, and, This paper introduces an integrated model that combines the Rainfall Runoff Inundation (RRI) and spatially distributed flood damage estimation models. 242-254, 2013. pp. The result of the GSMAP-NR does not vary significantly from the GSMAP-ST and all GPM estimates. Leaving no one behind is a worldwide goal, but it is difficult to make policy to address this issue because we do not have a thorough knowledge of where poverty exists and in what forms due to lack of data, particularly in developing countries. The results were validated by collecting damage cost data from the Department of Agricultural Lands Management and Statistics (DALMS). Evacuation orders are still in place across Bago, Karen, Mon and Taninthari provinces with 36 dams and reservoirs overflowing, according to state media. This area has heavy rainfall over its western coast and is one of the heaviest rainfall areas of the southwest monsoon. make the Bago city area more vulnerable to flood damage. Although the Zaungts dam stored approximately 140 million m ³ during this period, which was an amount equivalent to 40% of inflow volume during July 22 and 28, the resulting flood widely propagated in the Bago city. KEYWORDS flood inundation maps; Bago River Basin. In this study, the impact of the sensitivity degradation on the rainfall amounts is estimated by adjusting the pre-boost data with a simulation of reduced sensitivity by the orbit boost. Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and its successor, Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM), have provided hydrologists with important precipitation data sources for hydrological applications in sparsely gauged or ungauged basins. Considering the latency of near real-time satellite estimates, the GSMAP-NR shows the best potential with a 4-hour latency period for monitoring and forecasting purposes in the basin. The proposed method was evaluated and compared with other high-resolution precipitation products and the ground-based data collected by the Automated Meteorological Data Acquisition System (AMeDAS) near Japan.

To assess the risk, flood characteristics were computed using the rainfall–runoff–inundation hydrological–hydraulic model, and flood damage was estimated by integrating the flood characteristics, flood damage curves, exposure characteristics, and property values. This study considered the Bago River Basin of Myanmar. Considering the latency of near real-time satellite estimates, the GSMAP-NR shows the best potential with a 4-hour latency period for monitoring and forecasting purposes in the basin. The Bago river watershed has experienced many floods in the past, and floods on the same scale as this flood are expected to occur in the future. Heavy rains damage dam near Bago, flood 85 villages forcing 63,000 to be evacuated Heavy rains caused a dam spillway, which controls the release of more than 20,00 cubic metres of water, to break. urban area of Bago. Moreover, the 144 elevation of the old city area is higher than that of other areas, so it is less affected by floods. to produce hourly 0.10-degree global precipitation maps. In, weekly peak precipitations at Bago station were 415 mm. This paper presents a multivariable flood damage assessment based on … ... Floodwaters are washing over residential areas in Myanmar's Bago region, driving thousands of people from their homes after a dam failed. Bangla for Bengal: Can secularism trump regional linguistic pride. = Initial report = Rainfall estimates made using the revised GSMaP algorithm are in better agreement with estimates from data obtained by the radar on the TRMM satellite and by gauge-calibrated ground radars than are estimates made using the original GSMaP algorithm. However, when the calculation time and cost are included in the consideration, the RRI model is preferable, as it is faster and freely available.

The Myanmar Times 07 Aug 2018. The figure shows that a large amount of water was stored behind the dam during the 2018 flood events. The Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency ( ENS ) and coefficient of determination ( R² ) were used to evaluate the performance of the models. At least 50,000 people are thought to have evacuated their homes after the Swar irrigation dam was breached during the early hours of 29 August, 2018, according to Reuters. BRAC helps flood victims in Bago Region. eated. Near real-time and standard versions of both satellite estimates show potential utility over the basin. AFP reporters travelled several hours to reach Maubin village in Shwe Kyin district with the relief boat yesterday, passing multiple settlements of half-submerged thatched homes, many with trapped residents looking out of upstairs windows at the inundations. Bago, MYANMAR, August 2018 – Tan Chong Motor (Myanmar) Co., Ltd. (“TCMM”), a subsidiary of Tan Chong Motor Holdings Bhd. "We experienced flooding like this back in 2000 — this year is the worst since then," he said. Hydrological monitoring is one of the key aspects in early warning systems that are vital to flood disaster management in flood-prone areas such as Bago River Basin in Myanmar. Based on the flood survey, the 2018 Bago river flood was classified into 4 areas; the right bank of the Bago river, the eastern town, the northern town, and the downstream from the Zaungts Weir and Bago city.

For the first time the disaster response system in Myanmar functioned also at a local level, with local agencies sharing relevant data and providing information to the public. Near real-time and standard versions of both satellite estimates show potential utility over the basin. This study found that IMERG-F demonstrates comparable or even slightly better accuracy in statistical and hydrological evaluations in comparison with its predecessor, 3B42V7, indicating that GPM-era IMERG-F is the reliable replacement for TRMM-era 3B42V7 in the study area. Komori et al. The final findings included comparative scenarios for reducing damage cost in the most effective and realistic way. According to a UN report of 30 July, as many as 120,000 people have been displaced by flooding and landslides in Myanmar over recent weeks. Zaungts station was missing during 2009–2012 and 2015. The families living near the bank of river have been moved to the flood relief camps. weekly time scales at Bago and Zaungts stations. The result was contributed as essential data for flood damage estimation by using Rainfall Runoff Inundation (RRI) model output. In this study, because of the limitation of real-time data availability, the satellite-based precipitation was used for clarifying the characteristics of the flood.

"If this embankment doesn't hold firm against the next flood, many more villages will be at high risk," rescue team leader Hlaing Min Oo told AFP as he oversaw a chain of volunteers loading a boat with food destined for marooned flood victims. "If this goes on, people will struggle to make a living." Recent severe flood events in 2011, 2014, and 2018 caused serious damage to many paddy fields and houses [32]. The 2018 Trinidad and Tobago floods were a series of over-bank floods and flash-floods occurring in the twin-island Caribbean nation, Trinidad and Tobago. The authors improve the performance of estimates made using a passive microwave radiometer algorithm, the Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation (GSMaP) algorithm, from data obtained by the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) for orographic heavy rainfall. Using the results, we can determine the number and location of poor people at the local scale. Because property damage and loss of life owing to floods have increased in many countries in recent years, accurate assessment of flood risk is urgently needed for effective flood management. ibrate and validate the results. Bago Region covers 39,405 km 2, and consists of 28 townships. There are three steps for fulfilling this purpose. Here, we show a novel method for estimating income levels by building. It was evident that authorities in the Bago River Basin had learnt from the floods of 2011 and had implemented structural and non-structural measures for flood risk reduction. The Department of Meteorology and Hydrology warns of more rain this week. Improving the assessment of flood risk requires considering the impact of dam operation for flood control because dams and reservoirs play important roles in the assessment of flood hazards and associated damage. Flood damage assessment provides decision makers with critical information to manage flood hazards. Thousands of people are affected due to the perennial flooding. The Mann-Kendall non-parametric test and the Pettitt test were applied to detect trends and step changes in annual total precipitation, annual maximum precipitation and monsoon onset and withdrawal dates. Firstpost - All Rights Reserved. The result shows that the decrease of the global rainfall amount due to the sensitivity is about 2.1% on average. NGOS and a local government disaster management worker took the Myanmar government to task on Thursday for failing to issue a warning that a breach in a spillway of the Swar dam in Bago region would flood dozens of villages, a day after the catastrophe killed one person and displaced tens of thousands of others. The flood inundation map of the Bago river basin was developed by coupling a hydrological and hydraulic model with geographical information systems. The result of the GSMAP-NR does not vary significantly from the GSMAP-ST and all GPM estimates. Parliament was meeting to discuss the national planning bill for fiscal 2018-19. People in Bago Region wade through floodwater as they move to higher ground. The second step is a questionnaire survey to analyze the economic damage to affected population and properties caused by, Flooding is one of the major hazards in Myanmar causing damage and losses to lives and properties. It was clearly shown that the approach described in this paper performed better than without the Kalman filter, and the time series of the hourly global precipitation pattern demonstrated the potential capabilities for weather monitoring and typhoon tracking.
