Though potentially very useful to engineers, this information can mislead planners and developers into assuming that areas outside these limits are risk free. This paper reports on an alternative, geo...
1.Study on Regional Flood Risk Map Based on GIS;基于GIS的区域洪水风险图研究 2.And flood risk map contains comprehensive information such as area nature, socio-economy and flood calamity, so it can play an important reference role in flood prevention and reduction.洪水风险图综合自然、社会经济和...
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...
Building on a review of three very different approaches to engaging the public in science, we contrast the normal way in which science is used in flood risk management in England and Wales with an experiment in which knowledge regarding flooding was co-produced. This illustrates a way of ...
Sum curves of grain size for all flood samples. The dashed black lines give the limits of PM2.5and PM10, respectively. All sampling points are depicted in the map on the right. The dark blue area in the map indicates the inundated area in case of an extreme event (return period of sign...
[2004] suggest that the average annual costs from flooding could increase to more than £20 billion by 2080 in England and Wales alone. To provide the most appropriate mitigation strategies against coastal flooding in a region, it is essential to accurately establish the future risk associated ...

Human exposure to floods continues to increase, driven by changes in hydrology and land use. Adverse impacts amplify for socially vulnerable populations, w
Flood risk assessment methods mainly consist of four steps, including: hazard assessment, exposure assessment, vulnerability assessment and risk assessment (Penning-Rowsell et al.2005b; Foudi et al.2015). Even though all of these steps are important in the flood risk assessment process, flood haz...
