Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Iowa, 2024.

Recent decades have given rise to increases in flood damage across the globe. As intense rainfall becomes more frequent, traditional flood fighting methods like levees and reservoirs are no longer sufficient to avoid flood damage, and new construction of these systems is prohibitively expensive. The United States landscape is dotted with over 90,000 dams, most of which are small and are not used for flood control. Of those that are, most do not have gated outlets that allow for controlled releases. While some literature exists on the design and optimization of these distributed storage networks, almost no research has been conducted on cooperative operation of the ponding locations throughout a watershed and actively managing their storage with gated outlets. This dissertation describes this method, coined here as "activated distributed storage", using an existing watershed with 130 such dams as a case study. The primary objective of this dissertation is to develop a foundational understanding of activated distributed storage as a tool for flood peak reduction, identifying points of opportunity as well as limitations. To this end, I conduct a series of studies that i) evaluate the effectiveness of activated distributed storage for flood fighting under a variety of spatiotemporal rainfall conditions, ii) utilize rainfall forecasts to assess the limits of proactive operation of the distributed network, and iii) investigate optimal control of the network to outline a dynamic operation framework. The culmination of this work identifies that activated distributed storage can meaningfully reduce peak flows within a watershed under a variety of rainfall conditions and operational schemes. This provides both a positive proof of concept of this method and serves as a foundation for future work.
