Abstract: ABSTRACT MODULAR FLOOD-ADAPTIVE HYDRAULIC STORAGE SYSTEM FOR AGRICULTURAL COMMODITY STORAGE A modular flood-adaptive hydraulic storage system for agricultural commodity storage includes a plurality of modular storage units (110), each comprising an elevated commodity-support region (120) configured to support agricultural commodities and a floodwater-routing region (130) disposed below the elevated commodity-support region (120) and configured to receive floodwater, and a discharge arrangement in hydraulic communication with the floodwater-routing region (130). For each modular storage unit (110), a first hydraulic pathway (140) is disposed at a first activation elevation h1, a second hydraulic pathway (150) is disposed at a second activation elevation h2, and an emergency hydraulic pathway (160) is disposed at a third activation elevation h3, wherein h1 h2 h3. The first hydraulic pathway (140), the second hydraulic pathway (150), and the emergency hydraulic pathway (160) are configured to be successively brought into discharge as a prevailing water level rises through h1, h2, and h3 respectively, without powered actuation.
