In this task, the level of information was decisive to carry out space–time identification, estimate the affected area and define the type of damage to the structures, and the environment (e.g. mud flow, debris flow, rock falls, shoreline progradation, fan deltas), which may be relevant...

Flood risk is expected to increase as the climate warms. This study, for the first time, uses several climate models to estimate the global risk of flooding at the end of the century. Projections show a large increase in flood frequency in some areas, wh
particularly women in the developing world, remain underexplored. Here, we evaluated the risk of pregnancy loss for women exposed to floods. We analyzed 90,465 individual pregnancy loss records from 33 developing countries, cross-referencing each with spatial-temporal flood databases....
Assessing the temporal variability in extreme storm-tide time series for coastal flood risk assessment The probability of extreme storm-tide events has been extensively studied; however, the variability within the duration of such events and implications to ... N Quinn,M Lewis,MP Wadey,... - 《...
This would allow them to plan ahead to reduce the level of risk to homes, industry, and infrastructure San Francisco International Airport will be most likely be flooded in the next 30 years. Blue lines indicate current Mean High Water Levels. Yellow lines indicate the Mean High Water level ...
There is also a strong need for sub-national flood risk assessments, for example at federal state level, for larger river stretches, large cities or on a basin-scale. Such meso-scale flood risk assessments are for instance used for regional flood risk management and mapping and in the re-in...
(Paranychianakis and Chartzoulakis, 2005).Flood irrigationis impossible in desert conditions, due to the lack ofwater resources, and is completely unsuitable for olives.Sprinkler irrigationwith saline water may cause injury due to high rates of foliar salt absorption, and the risk of injury will...
(3 °C global warming), they can lower projected flood losses in Europe by 2100 from €44(30–61) billion to €8.1(5.5–10.7) billion per year and lower population exposed by 84% (75–90%) or achieve a risk level comparable to today. The economic investment required over 2020...
The following two procedures are followed by the paper for the generation of the BPA function in conjunction with the five areas of the risk class interval. 3.4.2. Relationship between Focal Elements and Risk Level The five degrees of community flood risk are low risk, medium low risk, ...
