This article used different models to analyze the flash-flood susceptibility in the Basca Chiojdului River Basin in Romania, highlighting slope as the most important factor triggering flash floods and identifying the central part of the basin as more susceptible to flash flooding.
Historical exploration of flash flood events and producing flash-flood susceptibility maps are crucial steps for decision makers in disaster management. In this article, classification and regression tree (CART) methodology and its ensemble models of random forest (RF), boosted regression trees (BRT) and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) were implemented to create a flash-flood susceptibility map of the Basca Chiojdului River Basin, one of the areas in Romania that is constantly exposed to flash floods. The torrential areas including 962 flash flood events were delineated from orthophotomaps and field observations. Furthermore, a set of conditioning forces to explain the flash floods was constructed which included aspect, land use and land cover (LULC), hydrological soil groups lithology, slope, topographic wetness index (TWI), topographic position index (TPI), profile curvature, convergence index and stream power index (SPI). All models indicated the slope as the most important factor triggering the flash flood occurrence. The highest area under the curve (AUC) was achieved by the RF model (AUC = 0.956), followed by the BRT model (AUC = 0.899), XGBoost model (AUC = 0.892) and CART model (AUC = 0.868), respectively. The results showed that the central part of the Basca Chiojdului river basin, which covers approximately 30% of the study area, is more susceptible to flash flooding.
