Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMonitoring of GPS Precipitable Water Vapor During the Severe Flood in KelantanWayan Suparta, Ja’afar Adnan, Mohd. Alauddin Mohd. AliProblem statement: This study mainly discusses the possibility of PWV derived from GPS data for monitoring of water vapor changes during the severe flood due to heavy rainfall. There are two cases of heavy rainfall recorded during the winter monsoon in November 2009 at Kuala Krai, Kelantan. Approach: The first and second cases were sustained for 3 days from 4-6 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 13 Mar 2012 · 9,166 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Rainfall Forecasting Using Sequential Momentum-Based Artificial Neural Networks for Urban Flood ManagementSherin K K, G. SuganthiUrban floods cause severe disruption in densely populated cities and damage essential public infrastructure. Rapid urbanization and weak drainage systems further increase the risk during heavy rainfall. Accurate short-term rainfall forecasting is required to support early warning and reduce losses. This research focuses on improving rainfall prediction accuracy using an Artificial Neural Network trained with a new optimizer named Sequential … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 9 Apr 2026 · 1,539 accessesView PDFCite
