Journal ArticleDOI
On the use of numerical modelling for near-field pollutant dispersion in urban environments − A review
TL;DR: The studies performed during the past years on the wind-flow field around buildings are reviewed and errors that can produce poor results when numerically modelling wind flow and dispersion fields around buildings in urban environments are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of river bed morphology on discharge and water levels simulated by a 1D Saint-Venant hydraulic model at regional scale
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a 1D unsteady hydraulic model (HEC-RAS) with lateral inflows provided by the hydro(geo)logical model Eau-Dyssee to explore a wide spectrum of river geometry scenarios, regarding river bed slopes and cross-sectional shapes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of nature-based infrastructure (NBI) in coastal resiliency planning: A literature review.
Firas Saleh,Michael P. Weinstein +1 more
TL;DR: This review is focused on NBI approaches to improve coastal resilience in the face of extreme storm events, including hurricanes and concludes that "caution is advised" before selecting a particular NBI method as there is no "one size fits all" solution to address site-specific conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the impact of in-stream water level fluctuations on stream-aquifer interactions at the regional scale
Firas Saleh,Firas Saleh,Nicolas Flipo,Florence Habets,Florence Habets,Agnès Ducharne,Ludovic Oudin,Pascal Viennot,Emmanuel Ledoux +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, an upscaling method is proposed to benefit from high-resolution hydraulic modeling at local scale to improve the simulation of river stages at regional scale, where the rating curves are used as boundary conditions and allow to calculate river stage, which is then used to calculate the exchanges between aquifer units and river.
Journal ArticleDOI
A multi-scale ensemble-based framework for forecasting compound coastal-riverine flooding: The Hackensack-Passaic watershed and Newark Bay
TL;DR: In this article, a multi-scale framework consisting of hydrologic, coastal and hydrodynamic models was used to simulate two extreme flood events at the confluence of the Passaic and Hackensack rivers and Newark Bay.
