“…This study examines three zones in Dammam in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA.Urbanization drastically alters the hydrological dynamics of coastal cities. The constructions create impermeable surfaces extended on permeable sandy soils, consequently, making it difficult to recharge aquifers with rain and increasing the retention of surface water (Garzo, Dadon & Castro, 2019).…”

This paper aimed to study the drainage system of a residential neighborhood through a case study. Thus, a sensitivity analysis of drainage was carried out considering the progress of the urbanization process in the Imboassica district, in the municipality of Macaé, Rio de Janeiro. It was possible to evaluate the model’s response to different land use planning, represented with variations in the Manning coefficient and also in the Curve Number. The MOHID platform was used along with the OpenFlows FLOOD® software interface to elaborate scenarios with different soil characteristics, and distinct Digital Elevation Model (DEM) were adopted. In the first evaluation, three simulations (1, 2 and 3) were performed considering the natural topography of the terrain, using altimetry data obtained from the TOPODATA project of the National Institute for Space Research (INPE). Afterwards, the elevation quota represented in the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) was raised by 10 meters in the locations corresponding to the location of the houses and by 1 meter in the roads of the residential condominium, and then the three simulations (4, 5, and 6) were performed. The six simulations adopted the 10 years return period Rain Design. After that, another set of six simulations were performed, adopting the 50 years return period Rain Design. It was possible to observe that in the simulations considering the change in the elevations due to the presence to the houses and the road, the calculated value of the water depth increases in the drainage channels. The effect of the Curve Number changes was observed in the flood peak simulation, which is reduced due to the presence to greater vegetation. And finally, it was possible to observe the effect of the change in the Manning’s Coefficient, whose increase caused a delay in runoff.

“…One of the primary applications of RS tools and geospatial technologies involves monitoring and detecting changes over the Earth's surface using multi-temporal data [22]. Optical and multispectral RS sensors have been widely used for change detection studies across various applications [23][24][25][26][27][28][29]. In coastal studies, this data type has been extensively used to extract shoreline positional features [30][31][32] and to support automatic change detection methods [33,34].…”

The high exposure of coastal areas worldwide to natural and anthropogenic disasters emphasizes the relevance of disaster management processes that ensure a prompt damage detection and identification of affected areas. This paper aimed to develop a novel approach for disaster monitoring in coastal areas using SAR data. The method was based on an interferometric coherence difference analysis of Sentinel 1 data. To calibrate and validate the method, the Emma Storm, a severe coastal storm that affected the southwest coast of the Iberian Peninsula in 2018, was chosen as a case study. A coastal land use/land cover method optimization by optical and UAV field data resulted in an overall improvement of about 20% in the identification of disaster-affected areas by reducing false alarms by up to 33%. Finally, the method achieved hit and false alarm rates of about 80% and 20%, respectively, leading to the identification of approximately 30% (7000 ha) of the study area as being affected by the storm. Marshes and vegetated dunes were the most significantly impacted covers. In addition, SAR data enabled the impact assessment with a time lag of 2 days, contrasting the 25-day delay of optical data. The proposed method stands out as a valuable tool for regional-scale coastal disaster monitoring. In addition, it can be automated and operated at a low cost, making it a valuable tool for decision-making support.
