Abstract

The objective of this study is to investigate the estimate of surface runoff level and flood risk in the Rizan basin valley. Additionally, the study intends to analyze the hydrological impacts of the continuously flowing valleys, which are primarily influenced by rainfall and surface water runoff. These factors play a crucial role in the overall dynamics of surface water in the region. Furthermore, the potential hazards associated with this matter should also be taken into consideration.


      The primary objective of hydrological investigations pertaining to water valleys is to gather specific data regarding surface runoff characteristics, such as its magnitude, depth, and peak discharge resulting from precipitation events. This information is typically obtained through direct measurements conducted at hydrometric stations. However, in cases where water basins are not subject to monitoring, alternative methods are employed. The investigation conducted within the research area relies on the use of statistical methodologies and mathematical equations.
