Predict Flood

Predict Flood

Methods of Prediction of Flood


In order to reduce the risk due to flood , three main approaches are taken to flood prediction.
1.Statistical studies can be undertaken to attempt to determine the probability and frequency of high discharge of stream that causes flooding.

2.Flood can be modeled and maps can be made to determine the extent of possible flooding when it occurs in the future.

3. And,  since the main causes of flooding are abnormal amounts of rainfall and sudden thawing of snow or ice , storms and snow levels can be monitored to provide short-
term flood prediction

Prediction  of Flood : Past and Present Methods

Design Flood
Flooding is a disastrous event which must be predicted to save lives and protect property. Scientists and engineers across the world are constantly creating new ways to detect floods and save lives using the latest technological progress. But how did people predict floods before modern technology? This article will examine how they did so, how floods are predicted now, and ways that floods may be predicted in the future. In order to predict a flood, it is necessary to know the history of flooding in the area. This is used extensively in modern forecasting techniques, some examples of which we will explore momentarily, yet even ancient societies were able to use this knowledge to protect themselves from future calamities.
Many societies have legends of floods in their mythologies and religions which may have been the inspiration to record flooding incidents. Just as Noah used his forewarning from God to build his Ark, people across the world throughout history have searched for ways to protect themselves from flooding. This can only be done by knowing when and where a flood will strike. The Egyptians are the first civilisation that we have evidence of their attempts to record and then predict floods. They used physical markings to indicate the highest levels of the water, a technique also used in Ancient Chinese culture. Both these cultures held written accounts and even maps indicating where previous floods throughout their history had occurred.

And so, across the history of the world civilizations have recorded the floods that devastated their lands. They have then used this knowledge to create increasingly inventive forms of prediction and protection. Mathematicians have created computer programmers and algorithms to increase the accuracy of their predictions. Geologists can determine when floods have occurred, even those from thousands of years of ago by examining sedimentary deposits, and are working to use this knowledge to foresee future natural disasters. Many individuals from a wide range of professions have dedicated their careers to improving the world’s ability to predict and then prevent floods.
One fascinating method of flood prediction in existence is LIDAR technology (short for Light Detection and Ranging). It uses high frequency pulsating lasers to read vast areas of land. It is surprisingly quick and inexpensive considering it is capable of extremely accurate results. Current problems with the system are caused by too much data – as the laser pulsations reflect from every object they meet, complex computer software is required to sift through all of the information to the relevant data. Regardless, this is an impressive method of prediction as it allows for the creation of maps that forecast the outcome of the flood.
An essential measure in the prediction of floods is preparation. Being prepared for a flood at any time is essential for those in high risk areas, and also advisable for those in lower flood risk zones.

Lie Detection

How To Detect Who Is Lying  With You ?

weren’t sure enough to call them out on it, only to find out later that you were right
all along? As much as life is about love and community and friendship, it is also
about wisdom and discernment. As nice as it would be to live in a world
where everyone is honest and transparent, the truth is, we have a long way to go with
that still. Something that can really help you on your journey is being able to
distinguish between a lie and a truth. It is good to learn the ways to identify a lie
NOW so that you don’t have to learn the hard way through experience later.
Whether it be a co-worker, friend, family member, or peer, here are 3 main ways to
tell if someone is lying to you: 1) Their body language changes
It has been estimated that about 55% of all communication boils down to body
language. We are biologically wired to be able to read body language, and knowing
how to identify specific movements and gestures is a good way to prevent yourself
from falling victim to a liar. Here are a few body language signs to look for if
someone is lying:


1. They are blinking rapidly (trying to be more convincing)
2. They aren’t making eye contact (either out of guilt, or trying to think
of a story on the spot in their head)
3. They may put their fingers on their mouth (subconscious way to prevent them from spilling the beans)
4. The stare at you very still without blinking (forcefully trying to remain calm)
5. They change their head position quickly (to replicate an ‘AHA!’ moment)
These 5 things, in combination with what we are about to talk about, are signature body language behaviours that most liars display.
 

2) Their tone of voice changes It is estimated that about 38% of
communication involves tone, volume, flow, pitch, and speed. They may start
talking more quietly, more quickly, or stumble over their words. They may
stutter a bit as well because they are trying to make up a story as they go
along. You may also notice that they are giving you too MUCH information as an
attempt to make themselves super convincing to masquerade their lies.
Their voice may carry a sense of nervousness, anxiety, or fear when there
is no need for it to exist. If you ask someone “Where were you today?” and
they did nothing wrong, there is no logical reason why they should be nervous,
stumble over their words, or try to overly convince you of where they were. Body
language combined with tone of voice accounts for the majority of human communication, and learning how to read both of these will give you a huge leg up.
 

3) Their energy field changes . It is estimated that the remaining 7% of
communication is verbal in nature and
consists of words. These numbers, by the way, come from a study done by
professor of psychology Dr. Albert Mehrabian which tested verbal and non-
verbal communication. If someone lies and says “I don’t have a problem with
you!”, he concluded that 93% of the communication could be picked up by the
tone of voice and body language. I personally think 7% is too high of a
number, because his studies failed to include other important ingredients which
are just as scientific. Intuition,  pre-cognition,  and empathy. A lot of people
identify with being an empath, meaningthey can literally feel the thoughts and
feelings another person is having. If you have a strong intuition and are empathetic
in nature, I would argue that you can discern the remaining 9% using these
tools alone, leaving only 1% to actual words.How does it feel in your stomach and in
your heart? Does it feel similar to how you felt a separate time when someone was
lying to you? If you are standing  with them, pay attention to how their energy
field feels. Is it one of defense, lies, and manipulation? Science tells us that body language and tone make up the majority of a person’s communication, and experience tells us that intuition and empathetic ability can account for majority of the rest. Spiritually speaking, 100% of communication is non-verbal. It’s all communicated through the energy field and through the thought field. If you are in touch with that aspect of yourself, and combine that with this new knowledge about tone of voice and body language, you are well equipped to see through the veils of deception.
Hope this helps!

Flood

What is a flood ?

It is a natural event or occurrence where a piece of land (or area) that is usually dry land, suddenly gets submerged under water. Some floods can occur suddenly and recede quickly. Others take days or even months to build and discharge.

When floods happen in an area that people live, the water carries along objects like houses, bridges, cars, furniture and even people. It can wipe away farms, trees and many more heavy items.
