The 19 pages that link to Flood forecasting, each with the reason it gives.

• WatershedRelated: Forecasts use watershed rainfall, terrain, and stream response to estimate downstream flows.

• Flood controlRelated: Forecasts provide time to operate defenses and move people or property.

• FloodRelated: Forecasts can provide time to evacuate or protect exposed property.

• HydrologyRelated: Uses rainfall, snowmelt, and flow data to anticipate river hazards.

• Drainage basinRelated: Rainfall and stream data across a basin help estimate the timing and size of outlet flows.

• Atmospheric riverRelated: Atmospheric-river rain can rapidly raise river levels and trigger floods.

• River dischargeRelated: Rising discharge signals flood development and helps estimate downstream risk.

• Early warning systemRelated: Flood forecasts can provide time to evacuate or protect exposed assets.

• RunoffRelated: Runoff estimates help forecast streamflow peaks and flood hazards.

• Ensemble forecastingRelated: Ensembles represent uncertainty in rainfall, runoff, and river-flow predictions.

• Surface runoffRelated: Forecasts use rainfall and runoff estimates to anticipate rising river flows.

• Climate change and the water cycleRelated: Changing rainfall extremes and snowmelt make forecasts central to managing water-cycle hazards.

• Yangtze River floodsRelated: Rainfall and river-level forecasts guide reservoir releases and evacuation decisions.

• Catchment areaRelated: Rainfall over a catchment becomes a key input to forecasts at its outlet.

• Flood control in ChinaRelated: Rainfall, river-gauge, and reservoir data support warnings and operational decisions.

• Rain gaugeRelated: Rapid accumulation measured by gauges can signal rising flood risk.

• StreamflowBroader topic: High streamflow forecasts help identify impending river floods.

• Hydrological modelingBroader topic: Rainfall-runoff simulations convert weather forecasts into expected river responses.

• Flood managementRelated: Forecasts provide time to issue warnings and prepare protective actions.
