| Sumario: | River flood valleys are being subjected to the impact of urbanization
in large cities throughout the world. Therefore, urban planning strategies based
on water resources management must be established to avoid adverse environmental
impacts. This paper describes a two-dimensional mathematical model
for the determination of flood risk maps of the Rosario region, Argentina. The
mapping was made over the River Luduena flood plain, which embraces an
area of 5000 ha, with a population of 300 000. Based on the results, regional
governments are developing non-structural planning rules with the associated
legislation. In this way, the hydrodynamic mathematical modelling contributes
to the planning and control of water resources for a sustainable development. |
