n the area next to a river channel that is occasionally flooded when the river exceeds its limits
The lowlands adjoining the channel of a river, stream, or watercourse, or ocean, lake, or other body of standing water, which have been or may be inundated by flood water The channel of a stream or watercourse is part of the floodplain
(a) The surface of strip of relatively smooth land adjacent to a river channel, constructed by the present river in its existing regimen and covered with water when the river overflows its banks It is built of alluvium carried by the river during floods and deposited in the sluggish water beyond the influence of the swiftest current A river has one flood plain and may have one or more terraces representing abandoned flood plains (b) Any flat or nearly flat lowland that borders a stream and that may be covered by its waters at flood stages; the land described by the perimeter of the maximum probably flood (c) The part of a lake-basic plain between the shoreline and the shore cliff, subject to submergence during a high stage of the lake
A strip of relatively level land bordering a stream or river It is built of sediment carried by the stream and dropped when the water has flooded the area It is called a water flood plain if it is overflowed in times of high water, or a fossil flood plain if it is beyond the reach of the highest flood
a low plain adjacent to a river that is formed chiefly of river sediment and is subject to flooding
- The nearly level plain that borders the river and is subject to inundation from the main channel relatively frequently, usually once every two years or more frequently A flood plain is a depositional landform constructed from the river under current hydro-climatic conditions

A lowland adjoining a watercourse At a minimum, the area is subject to a 1% or greater chance of flooding in a given year
The area within the flood embankments or within the flood dikes (in Europe often called winterbed)
The portion of a river valley that has been inundated by the river during historic floods
A strip of relatively smooth land bordering a stream, built of sediment carried by the stream and dropped in the slack water beyond the influence of the swiftest current It is called a living flood plain if it is overflowed in times of highwater; but a fossil flood plain if it is beyond the reach of the highest flood (Bryan, 1922, p 88 )
The area around a body of water which may at times be under water and may at other times be dry land, depending on the level of the water in the lake, river, pond, etc
the plain next to a river where flooding occurs
A low, usually flat terrain near a river which is dry at normal levels and covered with water when the river is in flood stage
Belt of low flat ground bordering a stream channel that is flooded when runoff exceeds the capacity of the stream channel
flat low-lying ground alongside a river that is flooded when the river overflows its banks
Areas of land that are subject to periodic flooding by a neighboring river, stream or other body of water Flood plains are classified according to the anticipated frequency of flooding
The area of land adjacent to a watercourse that may be subject to flooding during the defined storm It includes the floodway and the flood fringe
is an area near a river where excess water from a flood collects and flows
For a given flood event that area of land adjoining a continuous watercourse that has been covered temporarily by water
Area adjoining a watercourse, covered by water in the event of a 100-year flood
A flood plain is a flat area on the edge of a river, where the ground consists of soil, sand, and rock left by the river when it floods. the large area of flat land on either side of a river that is sometimes covered with water when the river becomes too full

floodplain
An alluvial plain that experiences occasional or periodic flooding
floodplain
Relatively flat surfaces adjacent to active stream or river channels, formed by deposition of sediments during major floods The floodplain may be covered by water during floods: 100-year floodplain: That area that would be covered by water during the 100-year flood event Historic floodplain: An area larger than the 100-year floodplain Flow rate: The amount of water that moves through an area (usually pipe) in a given period of time
floodplain
(1) A flat tract of land bordering a river, mainly in its lower reaches, and consisting of alluvium deposited by the river It is formed by the sweeping of the meander belts downstream, thus widening the valley, the sides of which may become some kilometers apart In time of flood, when the river overflows its banks, sediment is deposited along the valley banks and plains (2) (SMP) Synonymous with 100-year floodplain The land area susceptible to being inundated by stream derived waters with a 1 percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year The limits of this area are based on flood regulation ordinance maps or reasonable method that meets the objectives of the SMP (WAC 173-22-030(2))
floodplain
A low area of land adjacent to a stream or other water course which is subject to flooding and holds the overflow of water during a flood Often delineated on the basis of the 100 year storm event
floodplain
a low plain adjacent to a river that is formed chiefly of river sediment and is subject to flooding
floodplain
low lands adjoining the channel of a river, stream or watercourse, or ocean, lake or other body of water, which have been or may be inundated by flood water, and those other areas subject to flooding
floodplain
The alluvial plain formed by the deposition of sediment from the periodic flooding of a river
floodplain
Land built of sediment that is regularly covered with water as a result of the flooding of a adjacent stream
floodplain
Mostly level land along rivers and streams that may be submerged by floodwater A 100-year floodplain is an area which can be expected to flood once in every 100 years
floodplain
The flat land along a stream or river that floods on a regular basis, sometimes every year The soils are often quite rich with new nutrients brought in by floodwater Trees that grow in floodplains must be adapted to saturated soils that occur on the site Floodplains are part of the "riparian" habitat, which is the general zone along lakes and rivers [To return to previous page, click your browser's BACK button then scroll through the page to your last location]
floodplain
Land adjacent to a river which is subject to regular flooding
floodplain
1 An area of flat land that may be covered by flood waters 2 A land area built up by deposits from a stream or river
floodplain
the low-relief (almost flat) area adjacent to a river that is submerged during a flood
floodplain

floodplain
flat area adjacent to a stream in a river valley
floodplain
The broad area of land adjacent to a watercourse that is susceptible to flooding during very high water or a flat area on either side of a river which is under water during a flood and made up largely of soil deposited by floods
floodplain
A relatively flat or low land area adjoining a river, stream, pond, SWM structure, or water course subject to periodic, partial, or complete inundation; or an area subject to unusual and rapid accumulation or runoff of surface water as a result of an upstream dam failure
floodplain
The low lying lands adjacent to a river, lake, or ocean Floodplains are defined by the frequency of the flood large enough to cover them For example, a 100 year floodplain would be inundated by a 100 year flood, while a 500 year floodplain would be covered by a 500 year flood (back to top)
floodplain

floodplain
a level, low-lying area adjacent to streams that is periodically flooded by stream water It includes lands at the same elevation as areas with evidence of moving water, such as active or inactive flood channels, recent fluvial soils, sediment on the ground surface or in tree bark, rafted debris, and tree scarring
floodplain
The land adjacent to a body of water or water course that is subject to flooding
floodplain
A generally flat, low-lying area adjacent to a stream or river that is subjected to inundation during high flows The relative elevation of different floodplains determines their frequency of flooding, ranging from rare, severe storm events to flows experienced several times a year For example, a "100-year floodplain"would include the area of inundation that has a frequency of occurring, on average, once every 100 years
