Abstract:

Flood risk assessment and management witnessed an extremely significant improvement during the last two decades pro-actively responding to the increasing impact of floods worldwide and to the promulgation of the European Flood Directive 2007/60/EC. In spite of these efforts, the uncertainties associated with all components of flood risk (hazard, exposure and susceptibility) are still high and several open problems still need to be accurately investigated. Addressing three different Italian case studies, this Dissertation aims at shedding some light on the most important flood risk related issu

Abstract:

Delta regions are typically characterized by their high population density, low elevation, and risk of flooding. Long term planning and preparation is needed to mitigate the adverse effects of floods. Disaster management planning and flood protection measures require information about urbanization patterns, but this information is lacking in many parts of the world. Global satellite data could potentially aid or replace local urbanization data in such data scarce areas. This master thesis assesses the suitability of two global satellite datasets to serve as proxies for urbanization in flood pr

Abstract:

The Government of Malawi, through delegates from the Department of Disaster Management Affairs, has on several occasions advised smallholder farmers who live in flood prone areas to relocate to upland areas that are safe from floods. Smallholder farmers have refused to do so and continue to live in the flood prone areas despite experiencing on-going flooding. Smallholder farmers living in flood prone areas in Malawi insist that flash floods bring fertile soils from upland areas that enhance crop production in the flood prone areas. These fertile soils allow smallholder farmers to grow a variet

Abstract:

The increasing risk of river flooding or coastal submersion is already visible through recent events like the storm Xynthia and the floods in the Var department, which caused several dozens of deaths in France. These catastrophic events, even if their extent remains relatively limited, would have justified a preventive evacuation of high risk prone areas. However, the consequences for the population would be much more serious when large cities of hundreds of thousands of people will be partially or totally threatened by floods. This possibility is already an actual danger for large megacities

Abstract:

碩士<br>東海大學<br>景觀學系<br>107<br>Recently, the global extreme climate has become an irreversible trend. The sea level rises, the rainfall intensity increases, and the scale of the typhoon increases. The disasters are becoming more and more serious. Among them, the flooding problem is the most one. Especially for the "Flood-prone Areas ", the probability of flooding and the frequency increase. Water helps people not to live，produce and appreciate, but to be a disaster. To face and slow down such trends, it is necessary to fully understand the natural, human and landscape environment of the base, an

MURP<br>Department of Urban and Regional Planning<br>Disaster is posing serious threats to both human lives, infrastructure and the environment at large. Greater Tzaneen Municipality (GTM) is one of the many municipalities that suffer from flood related disasters. Lack of integration between Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and spatial planning has compounded the disaster risk situation in the municipality. This study sought to investigate the prospects of integrating spatial planning with disaster risk reduction in flood prone areas of GTM. The study is guided by three research objectives. First

碩士<br>國立中興大學<br>土木工程學系所<br>104<br>In current practice, the foundation of most bridges is strategically designed to remain elastic even under severe seismic demands. A bridge foundation is typically equipped with a large strength, so that inelastic deformations caused by earthquake excitation would occur in the column. However, for bridges located in regions exposed to flood and seismic hazards, pile exposure resulting from riverbed scour reduces the lateral stiffness and strength of the foundation. Once the scour depth exceeds the critical level, the strength of the foundation becomes insuffic

The environmental disasters cause global economies decline and loses of people's lives and property. However, disasters don’t happen evenly. People who live in the area with higher hazard potential may have more experience about the disasters, nevertheless, the disasters nowadays happened under extreme weather, so the past experience and adaptation systems are useless.That’s why the disasters are getting worse and worse.

During high flow period from May to October each year, the total amount of rainfall accounts for 62% of the total annual rainfall of 2,400 mm, which is to cause flooding easily. Along these rivers terrain are lower, and some areas are even below the average high tide level, need to be protected by dikes and pumping stations
