The Lake Illawarra Floodplain Risk Management Study and Plan (FRMS&P) was commenced in 2001. Since the commencement of the project the need to quantify the risks associated with climate change on the floodplain

Study on State Compensation for Floodplain Inundation of the Lower Yellow River 黄河下游滩区受淹后国家补偿问题研究 A Tentative Plan for Classified Management on Floodplain Area of the Lower Yellow River 黄河下游滩区实行分类管理的设想 The relation between ground bearing-capacity and the standard pe...
At this time, the program has modernized more than 50 percent of the maps in the United States with more scheduled for the coming years with areas that have large populations and are at a greater risk for flood hazard given the highest priority. FEMA has already anticipated the need for ...
pressures and their impacts as well as multifunctional floodplain management as response and evidence for its effects on biodiversity. This study was conducted in the frame of the trial assessments for testing functionality and performance of the science-policy interface ‘BiodiversityKnowledge’ (Nessh...
Flood risk management Urban planning Urban sustainability Nature-based adaptation 1. Introduction Flooding is one of the most devastating natural hazards in terms of economic losses and casualties (IPCC, 2014, Munich Re, 2018). In the future, flood impacts are expected to increase dramatically (Jong...
Under the new Official Community Plan, Langley City references that where possible, new development will be built to support flood management, increase building setbacks and/or increase building elevations in an effort to limit flood hazards.
Other parts of the floodplain are recycled as eroding banks provide the coarse sediment and large woody debris for building new bars. A multichannel planform is maintained as building bars split flow; channels lengthen as bars and islands join into larger assemblages. Avulsion appears to cut new ...
In this study, a wetland reallocation (WR) plan based on water-indicator is designed to confront various ecological crisis and flood risks on Yonding River Floodplain, China, where converting farmland to wetland (CFW) and water diversion (WD) can be considered to balance the tradeoff between ma...
research has focused only on its time-domain. In this study, I sought to analyze the flood pulse in the Upper Paraná River Floodplain through a set of spectral (frequency-domain) and nonlinear analyses using a time-series of water level fluctuations (1968–2017) in the system. In doing so...
