1 “Flood peaks in Mid-Atlantic U.S. watersheds show a V-shaped response to urbanization: they decrease at low urban development (below 10% PDAW), then rise sharply as urbanization increases further due to complex climate-landscape interactions. A neural network model confirmed this nonlinear behavior, underscoring the need to consider more than just urban area when predicting flood risk.”…..Hua et.al.(2025).

ANN’s superior accuracy highlights its suitability for operational streamflow forecasts in this region.ANN models using lagged climate indices significantly outperformed ARIMA models for forecasting streamflow at Victoria’s stations, especially at Acheron where the ANN achieved Pearson R = 0.90,...
