Urban Flood Risk Management in a Changing Climate : Sustainable and Adaptation Challenges August, , 2009 Urban Flood Risk Management in a Changing Climate : Sustainable and Adaptation Challenges 4 th On the Job Training on Operational Flood Forecasting Tank Model Ir Mohd Zaharifudin Muhamad Ali Department of Irrigation and Drainage of Malaysia MACAO August , 2009

Urban Flood Risk Management in a Changing Climate : Sustainable and Adaptation Challenges August, , th OJT Background Under the Regional Corporation Project Implementation Plan (RCPIP), Malaysia has agreed to conduct (4) four On-the-job Training on Flood Forecasting between TC members (OJT). The 1 st OJT was held from 21 Jan – 28 February 2008, The 2 nd was held on 1 December – 31 December 2008 The 3 rd OJT was held from 21 July – 23 rd August The fourth and final OJT was held from 12 July until 6 August 2010 at DID office (Division of Water Resources Management and Hydrology), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The programme was arranged for 20 days to cover all the modules that have been planned by the DID The 4 th OJT was attended by 18 participants, comprising of 15 DID Engineers and the 3 Typhoon Committee (TC) members (Department of Meteorology and Hydrology Laos PDR, Ministry of Water Resources of China and Ministry of Water Resources and Environment Vietnam).

Urban Flood Risk Management in a Changing Climate : Sustainable and Adaptation Challenges August, , th OJT Objectives gain knowledge, appreciation and experience on use of the Tank Model for flood forecasting configure a flood forecasting model based on the Tank Model for a selected catchment in the participant’s country calibrate the Tank Model and preparing the model for operational use in the participant’s respective organization develop expertise in writing simple macros (MSExcel) to automate model computations – a skill which can be used to customize the model and further enhance the model in the future Technical knowledge sharing among participants Johor Flood Dec – Jan.2007 (Johor River Basin)

Urban Flood Risk Management in a Changing Climate : Sustainable and Adaptation Challenges August, , 2009 OJT Output  understanding the concept of the Tank Model in simulating flood runoff.  configure and calibrate a Tank Model for a river basin in the participant’s country  develop expertise in simple programming techniques which is useful for future continual enhancement of the model which is to be expected
