Reservoirs are used for limiting flooding since they can store an enough water volume. This research presents a practical procedure for sizing off-line reservoirs with an application in urban channels for places with space limitations. A complete formulation is presented, which can be easily used for designers and engineers for computing dimensions of off-line reservoirs. The formulation is applied to a case study located at the Cartagena de Indias, Colombia.enClimate changeDesignOff-line reservoirsProcedureTanksCatchmentsClimate changeFloodsUbiquitous computingWater levelsA practical methodology of design of off-line reservoirs for reducing maximum water levels in urban channelsArtÃculoAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)DOI: 10.1016/j.procs.2020.07.062
