Determinants of flood risk mitigation strategies at household level: A case of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province, Pakistan. Natural Hazards 88(1): 415-430.Shah, A.A., Jing, Z.Y., Abid, M., Ullah, R., 2017. Determinants of flood risk mitigation strategies at household level: a case of...
Our results show that current flood mitigation policies are likely to be maladaptive due to unintended consequences that ultimately undermine the effectiveness of the interventions in the longer term. Based on our analysis, we conclude that integrated flood risk management, effected through well-targeted...

A better understanding of the interplay between these elements represents a fundamental piece of information for the identification of robust large scale flood-risk mitigation strategies and the definition of viable development plans for flood-prone areas. However, although the “levee effect” phenomenon...

Six public meetings were used to explore flood mitigation strategies and specific measures of: (1) infiltration and impoundments; (2) walls and levee structures; (3) do nothing and accept the risk; and (4) relocation and repurposing land. ...
Mitigation Future Plans Flood risk mitigation can be achieved through a wide variety of actions and strategies. These include both structural/engineered actions (e.g., dikes and dams) and non-structural options (e.g., policies, programs, and initiatives). Based on the findings of this flood ...
