Abstract

<p> To derive flood risk curves considering spatiotemporal rainfall variability, frequency analysis of basin rainfall has been combined with thousands of normalized profiles of historical rainfall considering dependence of rainfall on duration. This study proposed to consider their further dependence on spatial concentration of profiles for deriving tributary flood risk curves. The scheme was applied to four major tributaries of the Yodo River basin, Japan. Comparing with a previous method, the proposed one better estimated flood frequencies at small tributaries (the Kamo and Katsura Rivers), keeping performance at large one (the Kizu River). Local flood risk curves were then derived around their confluence. Around the Kamo River, the proposed method showed better agreement in 100-year flood damage with reference data than the existing method. This study realized more reasonable estimation of the severity of flood risk and its spatial distribution.</p>
