1 Introduction Flooding, one of the costliest natural hazards, incurs billions of dollars in annual damages (Changnon, 2008; Davenport et al., 2021; Pielke & Downton, 2000). Low-lying coastal cities are particularly susceptible to flood hazards. These hazards can arise from a combination of pluvial (heavy rainfall), fluvial (river flooding), and coastal (storm surge and high tide) factors due to the cities' proximity to the coast and often major rivers.
Abstract Hydropower is a critical electricity resource in the United States which, in addition to low-cost electricity generation, provides valuable ancillary grid services, and supports the integration of nondispatchable weather-dependent resources (e.g., wind and solar).
Abstract Hydroelectric power generation in Western Canada significantly contributes to power grid operations of the North American Western Interconnection through substantial generation, some of which is exported to the United States (U.S.). However, the lack of publicly available hydropower generation datasets poses challenges for future market projections and resource adequacy evaluations.
