Abstract:

This study has developed a comprehensive integrated post-earthquake Flood Risk Assessment (FRM) model for Kota Belud, Sabah. The area faces increased risk of floods due to rapid development activities and natural disasters, such as the 2015 Ranau Earthquake. The frequent occurrence of floods, compounded by events such as landslides, erosion, and debris flows, particularly after the earthquake, calls for a more systematic risk management approach. Research on the relationship between earthquakes and flood risk is limited in Malaysia. This model considers earthquakes and other external factors i

With climate change causing increased extreme weather events, megacities worldwide are experiencing unprecedentedly devastating floods and recurring flood damage. Investigating global megacities’ increased disposition to flooding will aid in developing sustainable flood-risk-management frameworks.

Flood is a natural disaster that occurs repeatedly in Nepal and causes significant losses in terms of life and property particularly in low land areas around the river courses. Kamla basin is highly susceptible to flooding and had experienced many disastrous floods in the past. Flood mitigation measures generally consists of two main methods which are structural and non-structural methods. Nowadays, the importance of using nonstructural method such as flood hazard map and flood risk map are increasing because of environmental and economic aspects.

Abstract. Urban flooding has been and will continue to be a significant problem for many cities across the developed and developing world. Crucial to the amelioration of the effects of these floods is the need to formulate a sound flood management policy, which is driven by knowledge of the frequency and magnitude of impacts of these floods. Within the area of flood research, attempts are being made to gain a better understanding of the causes, impacts, and pattern of urban flooding.

Understanding the characteristics of flood hazards is crucial since it is one of the basic indicators for determining the risk of loss level.

In fact, the characteristics and scales that measure a flood hazard level also vary from one study to another. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to understand the characteristics of flood hazards and their influence on the risk of loss level by reviewing previous research.

AbstractThis study is concerned with flood risk that can be assessed by integrating GIS, hydraulic modelling and required field information. A critical point in flood risk assessment is that while flood hazard is the same for a given area in terms of intensity, the risk could be different depending on a set of conditions (flood vulnerability). Clearly, risk is a function of hazard and vulnerability. This study aims to introducing a new approach of assessing flood risk, which successfully addresses this above-mentioned critical issue.

Abstract:

Losses from flood disasters are increasing globally due to climate-driven forces and human factors such as migration and land use changes. The risks of such floods involve multiple factors and stakeholders, and frameworks for integrated approaches have attracted a global community of experts. The paper reviews the knowledge base for integrated flood risk management frameworks, including more than twenty bibliometric reviews of their elements. The knowledge base illustrates how integrated strategies for the reduction of flood risk are required at different scales and involve responses ranging f

Abstract:

Flooding is one of the recurrent natural disasters in Nigeria that poses huge threats to not just people but also critical infrastructures. In 2024, the Federal Ministry of Water Resources and Sanitation and the Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency (NIHSA) identified 31 states including the FCT as high-risk areas for significant flood impacts. The impact of floods generally has caused devastating damage to critical infrastructures resulting from high rain intensities for a long duration. It becomes pertinent to evaluate the impact of floods on critical infrastructures like roads, bridges, resi

Abstract:

Abstract The traditional regulatory and policy approach to flood risk in the US has been the optimization of benefits and costs, broadly mandated by federal policy. However, optimization may not be the best approach to flood risk management in light of the deep uncertainties we now face. A more incremental approach using a satisficing strategy may be. Flood risk is a function of the hydrologic factors that produce a hazard and the consequences of the hazard interfacing with the people and property exposed. Regretfully, both hydrologists and climatologists seem unable to provide the clairvoyant

Abstract:

Spring-breakup ice-jam floods are a major hazard for many rivers in cold regions. They can cause severe damage to infrastructure, property, and ecosystems along riverbanks. To reduce the risk and impact of these events, it is essential to develop reliable and timely forecasting systems that can provide early warning and guidance for mitigation actions. In this paper, we highlight the elements and processes required for the successful development of a spring-breakup ice-jam flood forecasting system, using the lower Churchill River in Labrador, Canada as a case study. We review the existing fore

Over the past decade, floods have increased in frequency and intensity, a trend that is expected to intensify over the next twenty-five years.

Abstract:

Evaluation of flood events in an area is essential to minimize its impacts by conducting hydrological and hydraulic river modeling. In 2016 and 2022, the events led to the breach of the Gajah Wong River levee, causing the floodwater to overflow and inundate residential areas, reaching a height of 2 meters. This study aims to analyze the risks posed by the Gajah Wong River overflow, while also identifying the elements at risk due to the potential of flooding. The flood inundation scenario modeling using Hec-RAS requires input such as peak discharge, Digital Terrain Model (DTM), and Manning's co

Abstract:

It is now commonly accepted that the management of flood risks has to be fulfilled within an integrated framework. About two decades ago flood risk was managed from a limited perspective predominantly by means of structural measures aimed at flood control. In contrast integrated flood risk management incorporates the complete management cycle consisting of the phases prevention, protection and preparedness. In theory it is a well described concept. In the stage of implementation, however, there is often a lack of support although a consistent policy framework exists. Consequently, the degree o

Abstract. As a result of the severe floods in Europe at the turn of the millennium, the ongoing shift from safety oriented flood control towards flood risk management was accelerated. With regard to technical flood control measures it became evident that the effectiveness of flood control measures depends on many different factors, which cannot be considered with single events used as design floods for planning. The multivariate characteristics of the hydrological loads have to be considered to evaluate complex flood control measures. The effectiveness of spatially distributed flood control sy

Due to urbanization and climate change, flooding has increased in frequency and severity, upsetting lives and seriously damaging property. Flood Susceptibility Modeling (FSM), which employs sophisticated machine learning approaches, helps identify flood-prone locations and the elements that contribute to these risks in order to solve this problem. This study explores hybrid FSM models that integrate the Index of Entropy (IOE) with Decision Tree (DT), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Random Forest (RF) to offer a dependable approach for flood prediction and prevention.
