Natural Geographical Dangers of Musel Haditha Damps

Abstract

Abstract: In recent years, a number of modern techniques have emerged that have helped to obtain the required information with greater precision and relatively shorter time. In this study, we have taken advantage of the most advanced techniques (GIS) in handling digital elevation models (DEM) and determining spatial distribution of sediments As well as the use of models of digital elevations in the determination of the limits of the basins of water reservoirs of the dam and the modern and calculate the hydrological variables of them .The study concluded to determine the levels of risk for the Mosul dams and the recent in terms of the identification of places unsafe during the period of floods and areas of decline, and also reached areas of vulnerability tectonic and threatened by continuous seismic activity.
