In this paper, the authors suggest a new flood risk assessment based on extreme discharge of the end-of-the-21st century scenario, and developed a model based on the concept of flood hazard that was composed of extreme discharge in climate change scenarios, saturation deficit dur...
Floods are one of the most common hazards in the world and cause loss of lives, livelihood and property destruction. The objective of this study was to review and synthesize concepts and techniques of flood hazard, vulnerability and risk assessment with reference to the Himalayan region. Flood ri...
the northeast, north and southwest of Beijing are also at high risk of flooding. The lowest risk in the west. Through the comparison and analysis with the above 12 flood impact factors (Fig.3), although there is relatively abundant precipitation in the west, ...
The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method used as a multi-criteria analysis allowed the integration of several elements under two criteria, hazards and vulnerability, for flood risk assessment and mapping. Results revealed that, Abidjan district is heavily exposed to the risk of flooding. Eight ou...
In this paper, a high-resolution impact assessment framework based on 2D inundation modelling with different return periods was used, as input, within the FloodRisk model to reconstruct the socio-economic damages based on a case study showing how structural and non-structural measures can ...
Flood risk assessment and management: review of concepts, definitions and methods The article brings a brief overview of the current concepts, definitions and methods of flood risk assessment and management. The modem concept of flood risk assessment is based on combination of flood hazard, probabilit...
of assessments at four different scales (supra-national, macro, meso, micro). An overview of assessment characteristics at different scales will then be discussed before providing the main lessons learned and identifying future research needs for different scales and for flood risk assessments generally...
Flood disaster mitigation strategies should be based on a comprehensive assessment of the flood risk combined with a thorough investigation of the uncertainties associated with the risk assessment procedure. Within the German Research Network of Natural Disasters (DFNK) the working group Flood Risk ...
The paper presents research results on flood risk mitigation by the controlled flooding of a retention area on the middle reaches of the Elbe River. The retention area consists of six large polders and the floodplain of a tributary, the Havel, and is located near the Havel''s confluence with...
