Daly River Community Flood Study

J. Paiva
Department of Lands, Planning and Environment
In this report a flood frequency analysis of peak discharges at the Daly River community has been carried out, and the frequency of major flood related effects on the Daly River community have been determined using hydrological records available to date. Also, the flood forecasting and warning system for the Daly River Community and its current upgrade and capability have been described.

Flood forecasting performance Katherine-Daly Rivers, January 1998

J. Childs and J. Paiva
Department of Lands, Planning and Environment, Natural Resources Division,
This report describes the flood forecasting activities of the Natural Resources Division (NRD) of DLPE in the Katherine/Daly River system. The performance and limitations of both the NRM river flood height forecasting procedure and the flood forecasting system during the January 1998 Katherine/Daly flood, since 23 January, have been examined. Immediate and long term improvements to the NRD forecasting system have been recommended.

Flooding in Katherine and Daly Rivers in the Northern Territory January - February 1998

Bureau of Meteorology,
This report has been prepared following the major flood in Katherine, 1998. The aim of this report was to document the meteorological and hydrological aspects of the significant weather and the flooding in the Katherine-Daly region during the period January and February 1998. It also outlines and reviews the prediction and warning services given by the Bureau of Meteorology in the lead-up to and during the event, and reviews the performance of the flood warning data networks and systems operated by the Bureau of Meteorology and the Water Resources Division of the Northern Territory Department of Lands, Planning and Environment.

This report could be used to determine where flooding has the potential to occur again, which could be important when planning future development areas.
