(4) the forecast flood hydrograph is used as input into a mathematical reservoir
operation model which uses an optimization technique in order to achieve
flood control in the river system under consideration in an optimal way, i.e. by
minimizing flood damages. The general principle of the approach is shown in
Fig. 16.5.
