Abstract

This research aims to study the physical factors affecting flood and formulate the flood susceptibility map in Khlong Nathawi subbasin by using Multiple Logistic Regression Model. The study indicated that physical factors caused of flooding were only 6 factors: 1) slope 2) land use and cover 3) soil drainage capability 4) distance from drainage 5) stream network density and 6) road network density which were sufficient to contribute the flood susceptibility map. The results also revealed that the success rate curve and prediction rate curve were 0.9191 and 0.9323, respectively. Flood susceptibility index values were divided into five classes. The classes affecting flood susceptibility were the highest and the high range that covering 120.18 square kilometers or 7.91% of the area. According to flood susceptibility index overlay with the flood plain from 2007 to 2017 and 2018, it illustrated that the real flood events happened in the highest susceptibility range with 60.18 square kilometers (57.63%) and 20.24 square kilometers (68.58%) respectively.               Keywords :  physical factors, flood susceptibility, Khlong Nathawi Subbasin, Multiple Logistic Regression
