Fate of pollution from sediments re-suspended during catastrophic flood on quality of environment of the flood plain
Original language description
This contribution presents methods to predict the effect of a catastrophic flood on old sediments loaded with high pollution. Such sediments may re-suspend due to a flood of, say, a Q500, they are transported downstream and settle in the flood plain. After the water decline, pollution leaches to subsoil and leaks through it to ground water. The methods presented here use the two-dimensional dynamic model FAST-2D upgraded with erosion and sedimentation terms and Visual MODFLOW model for groundwater flowand travel time modelling. The final result brings the estimate of the change of concentration of a representative heavy metal in the ground water with time as a consequence of new pollution that came with the new sediments to the flood plain.
