The functional relationship between detention dam inflows and outflows was derived in a

closed form in a recent work, which led to a theoretically derived probability distribution (TDD) of

the peak outflows from in-line detention dams. This TDD is tested using the generalized extreme

value (GEV) as a reference distribution for floods.

He is Full Professor of Hydrology and Hydraulic Constructions at the University of Naples Federico II. He is currently chair of the IAHS MOXXI working group. His research primarily centers on hydrological modeling and monitoring. Recognizing the challenges posed by the complexity and limitations of traditional hydrological observations, he actively explores advanced and alternative monitoring techniques, such as the utilization of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) coupled with image processing.
