Report of 4.3 on Floods, Drought and Water Resources from D. Yang, G. Ren, G. Kim, M.D. Hossain, G. Davaa, S. Thada, P. Panya, S. Shimizu, Y. Hirabayashi, K. Yoshimura
Flash Flood • Scale: small basin • Discrepancy between resolutions of HM and those of GCM/RCM. • Target Regions: all Asian Monsoon • Bottleneck • Measurement accuracy • Models: Not sufficient • Warning system: Not sufficient in many countries • Possible Achievement in 5 years? • Meteor / Hydro, Engineer / Researchers
Large Basin Floods/Droughts • Scale: Regional • RCM offers the reasonable weather prediction • Time scale • Seasonal / Interannual • Target Region: Chao Phraya, Yellow, Yangtze, Mekong, Ganges, others • Bottleneck • Accuracy of Weather Prediction • Large scale Hydrological model • For Droughts: Remote sensing, modeling and assimilation • Possible Achievement in 10 years
Water Resources • Human activities / land use changes / vegetation changes, etc. should be incorporated into (hydrological) models • Understanding of Climate changes • “Assessment for Management”
