Modelling soil erosion and sediment transport are vital to assess the impact of the flash floods. However, limited research works have studied sediment transport, especially in Egypt. This paper employs the HEC-HMS lumped hydrological model to predict the sediment load due to the flood event of 9th March 2014 in Wadi Billi, Egypt. The Modified USLE model has been used to calculate the total upland erosion, while Laursen-Copeland has been used to simulate load streams’ sediment transport potential. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) has been applied over Landsat 8 image captured on 20th February 2014 using ArcMap 10.5 to determine the vegetation cover based on its spectral footprint. The resulted sedigraph showed accumulation of more than five thousand tons of sediments at the Wadi’s outlet. The results are crucial to design a suitable stormwater management system to protect the downstream urban area and to use flood water for groundwater recharge.

Floods are one of the most recognized natural hazards that create havoc in society. Flooding involves inundation of a huge tract of area under water owing to heavy rainfall. The occurrence of flooding lays a severe impact upon the agricultural sector. The Balason River basin in Darjeeling district of West Bengal is not an exception in this regard. The basin is one of the most flood-prone areas and involves a lot of loss in crop production and destruction of villages. The present study aims to identify the flood susceptible zones of the district through the application of analytical hierarchy process and geospatial techniques, and also makes an attempt to detect how much settlements and croplands fall within the high susceptible flood prone area so that proper precautionary measures can be taken to minimize the maximum damage.
