“…From the high index of the model performance (calibrated and validated models efficiency index of 0.81 and 0.82, respectively), they suggested that the model can be used for filling the missing runoff from rainfall data. The HEC-HMS software estimated the flood at Johor River [60]. Good agreement was shown in the evaluation of peak discharge, and the model performance is close to unity.…”

“…References [53][54][55][56][57] used the commercial software InfoWorks River Simulation (IWRS), while [58] used InfoWorks Collection System (IWCS) from the UK to simulate rainfall runoff. Hydrological model from USA such as HEC [59][60][61], L-THIA program [62], MIKE [63][64][65], and MAYA 3D have been used to simulate flood events [66].

Hydrological modeling in Malaysia using two-dimensional fully distributed and physically based model is relatively new. Basic guidelines in choosing model dimensions (i.e., 1D, 1D-2D, 2D, and 3D) are discussed. The application of 3D model will give more accurate results if the groundwater movement is considered but requires more time to simulate and prepare input data. However, the 1D model is less accurate in representing the real topography of the study area, even though requires short time to simulate. This chapter also gives an overview about the hydrological modeling in Malaysia which ranges from 1D to 3D. Several researches on hydrology using different model were reviewed. The success of each model will be highlighted.

“…Two types of floods occur in Malaysia: (1) seasonal floods during the monsoon season and (2) flash floods, which sometimes occur in cities. The northeast monsoon season extends from November to March while the southwest monsoon extends from May to September (Razi et al ., ). As far as Segamat town is concerned, Gasim et al .…”

“…Incidence of flooding can be related to a number of factors such as heavy rainfall, large surface runoff, low infiltration and poor or inefficient drainage systems and networks (Razi et al, 2010). Chan (1997) reported that heavy urban development on flood plains also contributes to flood events, both through increased surface run-off and decreased infiltration.…”

Accurate and efficient flood forecasting system can improve the emergency rescue plans and help avoid the loss of lives. This study aims to identify the trends in rainfall and streamflow in Segamat River (Malaysia) by using Mann–Kendall trend analysis, to develop time series flood forecasting model by the application of autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) modelling approach. The accuracy of the optimal ARIMA model was verified by Spearman's rank correlation and linear regression analysis. The best ARIMA model was ARIMA (0, 1, 2). Trend analysis indicates that there was a trend of significant increase in rainfall rates at Kemelah Station and significant decrease at the Bandar Segamat Station, whereas streamflows at Bandar Segamat showed a trend of significant decrease. There was also a trend of decrease in streamflow over the study period. The applications of statistical modelling are beneficial to relevant authorities in understanding the flood patterns, trends and their potential risk.

“…Ghani et al (2009) found that deterministic models are still relatively new in Malaysia, although they have been widely used in many other countries. The few studies that use deterministic models to simulate floods in Malaysia, include Mah et al (2007Mah et al ( , 2010Mah et al ( , 2011; Said et al (2009) ;Ali and Ariffin (2011); Siang et al (2007); Yusop et al (2007); Razi et al (2010); Mohammed et al (2011); Izham et al (2010); Billa et al (2004Billa et al ( , 2006; Lim and Cheok (2009); Ghazali and Kamsin (2008); Teo et al (2009) and Toriman et al (2009). However, most of the studies listed here were carried out using a one-dimensional approach (except Lim and Cheok, 2009;Teo et al, 2009, which are twodimensional approaches).…”

The City of Kota Tinggi in Malaysia was under more than 5 m of water during the floods in December 2006 and January 2007. The watershed received between 280 and 530 mm of rain in 4 days. These extreme events occurred 3 weeks apart and caused extensive damages. The application of the fully distributed two‐dimensional model two‐dimensional runoff, erosion and export (TREX) to simulate these events and the estimation of the return period of such extreme events are the main objectives of this study. The model performance was very good based on the relative percentage different (3.7%), percent BIAS (overestimated the volume by 1.5%) and Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency coefficient (0.8). The TREX model is successful in simulating extreme flood events. The December 2006 rainstorm event at Kota Tinggi is extremely rare, and this multiday rainstorm had an estimated return period greater than 2000 years. The analysis of the return period shows that multiday rainstorms occur more frequently than single‐day events. In addition, we produce a flood threshold graph by integrating both the hydrological modelling process using TREX and the theoretical formulation of return period. The proposed flood threshold graph is useful in the estimation of the amount of accumulated rainfall from multiday rainfall that can cause flooding on a large watershed like Kota Tinggi.
