Description:

Join us on Tuesday, January 14 from 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM Eastern for Easy and Quick Determination of the PMF from the PMP Using Free Tools. This webinar will provide training on using the PMP to generate the PMF, including a walk-through of the rapidly evolving US Army Corps of Engineers HEC-HMS and HEC-RAS modeling processes to transform rain into runoff. The methodology was updated in 2023-2024 based on major software improvements and is cutting-edge. This webinar will include both theory and case study examples. This is Part II of a webinar by Bill Kappel related to the development of PMP and its application for dam safety, Probable Maximum Precipitation: What Is It, How Is It Calculated, and How Do I Apply It?

Learning objectives attendees will receive from this webinar:

Understand how the PMP is calculated and converted to PMF.
Understand how the PMF may be calibrated and validated.
Understand the areas of uncertainty in the PMF development process and how those affect design decisions and dam safety when using the latest versions of HEC-HMS and HEC-RAS.
Understand the application of PMF outputs to dam design or dam improvements.
Learn how climate change affects PMF estimates.
