What are the common characteristics of a flood-prone river's hydrograph?

media

56

What are the common characteristics of a flood-prone river's hydrograph?

  • It usually has a steeper rising limb.

  • It usually has a shorter time lag.

  • This means that the drainage basin does not favour infiltration. Surface runoff and channel flow increases rapidly after rain.

How do we tackle flood problems in Hong Kong?

In which part of Hong Kong do you think flooding usually occur? Give examples.

66

Flooding in Hong Kong

  • Northern part of New Territories (because it is where most of the lowland is located)

  • lower course of river (e.g. lower course of Ng Tung River)

  • some urban areas (e.g. Sheung Wan and Happy Valley in the past)
