This research presents a study of the risk of torrential rains in the Wadi Murayyekh basin, east of Jeddah, where heavy rains in 2009 and 2011 contributed to the injury and death of hundreds as a result of some areas being exposed to the risk of floods and torrential rains.
Wadi Murayyekh was studied in terms of population, surface runoff of torrents, and the effect of floods on residential areas using methods of hydrological analysis and detection of change for every five years of 1985 to 2015.
8Landsat 5,7 and satellite imagery was also used to study the urban expansion, as the buildings were extracted using remote sensing techniques for each time period, and the study area is witnessing a great urban expansion in the past few years and therefore it is necessary to develop a plan to build a good infrastructure in those areas, especially that it Highly dangerous areas.
This study relied on three main factors to determine the areas exposed to the risk of torrents, namely floods, exposure to risk and susceptibility to injury, some areas may be more dangerous than others in light of the presence of the population density and topography of the earth's surface where the study reached to show the areas exposed to the risk of torrents.
It may be one of the most important recommendations of this research is to raise the degree of cooperation by the relevant government agencies and academic bodies and provide financial and information support and application of outputs in the study areas, and the study concluded that it can be applied to most regions of the Kingdom and benefit from the scientific methods used in it.
The study included four chapters. The first chapter contains an introduction to the topic of study and its region. The second chapter focused on the theoretical framework and previous studies. The third chapter included the practical framework in hydrological analysis and detection of change. The fourth chapter included the results and recommendations.
