Summary
The study explores the impact of floods, phenomena amplified by climate change and human activities, on the natural and anthropogenic environment, focusing on the analysis of a section of the Cigher River in the Crișul Alb basin in western Romania. The research aims to identify areas vulnerable to flooding under different discharge scenarios, assess the impact on agricultural lands, and propose a reproducible methodology based on the integration of GIS technologies, hydraulic modeling in HEC-RAS, and the use of LiDAR data. The methodology includes hydrological analysis, processing of the Digital Elevation Model (DEM), delineation of geometries, hydraulic simulation for four discharge scenarios (S1–S4), and evaluation of the flood impact on agricultural and non-agricultural lands.
