Abstract
Flooding occurs when a body of water rises to overflow land that is not normally submerged (Ward, 1978). While this definition explicitly includes all types of surface inundation, floods are typically classified into four categories, viz., riverine (fluvial), coastal, groundwater and urban (often called pluvial) flooding. This study is limited to riverine floods, which occur when a river discharge exceeds its bankfull capacity (Leopold et al., 1964).
