Discussion

Comparative analysis shows increased flood risks in the Kabul River Basin, highlighting urgent needs for better management and planning.

Significant increase in rainfall observed, rising from 606 mm in 2010 to 826 mm in 2022, indicating environmental changes.
Flood risks heightened due to climatic fluctuations and urban development, influencing hydrological behaviors in the basin.
Hydrological modeling and GIS mapping reveal differences in flood behavior between 2010 and 2022, emphasizing high discharge durations.
The findings support the need for improved early warning systems and adaptive planning in vulnerable South Asian river basins.

Ullah et al. (2025) studied this question.
