Abstract:
Vernacular communities everywhere in the world, live in the midst of natural surroundings. Invariably, thus, they face the natural disasters such as floods, if the dwellings are constructed near waterways. Responding to the floods need careful strategies. There are frequent floods in the Rathnupra district of Sri Lanka, where many vernacular settlements exist. In order to mitigate flood risks, local communities have devised successful flood risk mitigation strategies in relation to construction of dwellings. However the adaptive capacity of the local people is not well understood as limited re

Flash flooding risk impacts can be reduced through the implementation of mitigation strategies plan (MSP) for flood management. This study aims to develop a flash-floods risk mitigation plan, which appears to be beneficial for municipalities, provincial administrators, and authorities to reduce the impact of the flash flood in the Kyrenia region, Northern Cyprus. In this work, rainfall data were collected from the nearest stations for 22 years. The return periods of maximum daily rainfall are also determined by using six formulas. Furthermore, flood inundation and hazard maps were defined by u

Abstract After several years of drought, 2023 and early 2024 are reminders of the powers of California’s atmospheric rivers and the devastating flooding they can entail. Aged flood-mitigation infrastructure and climate change exacerbate flood risk for some communities more than for others, highlighting the challenge of equitably mitigating flood risk. Identifying inequities associated with infrastructure projects is now legally required by regional water boards in California, but tools are lacking for making this assessment systematically.

In the context of emergency management, individual or household decisions to engage in risk mitigation behaviors are widely recognized to be influenced by a benefit–cost perception (perceived applied value (PAV) vs. perceived economic value (PEV), respectively).

Abstract:
Arid and semi-arid regions, including Cyprus, are increasingly experiencing severe weather events due to climate change. These events, characterized by prolonged droughts and flash floods, pose significant challenges to the environment, economy, and societal well-being. This paper aims to analyze the challenges of Flood Risk Management (FRM) in dry areas, focusing on Cyprus as a case study. It reviews historical data on temperature and rainfall patterns, flood types, and severity to propose effective, nature-based mitigation measures. The study examines temperature and rainfall trends over the

Abstract:
River floods are considered to be one of the most significant natural disasters, causing considerable damage each year. Risk assessment, as well as efficient risk management, are key aspects for the mitigation of flood-related consequences. The most common approach for quantifying flood risk is to estimate the expected annual damage, which combines the probability of occurrence and the associated damage. However, the concept of expected annual damage is considered a risk-neutral solution that maximizes economic efficiency. This paper analyzed the variability of expected annual damage as a risk

Abstract:
The UK's flood risk from rivers, surface water and ground-water is projected to increase with climate change. Natural flood management (NFM) can be described as using the natural features of the land to store and slow down the flow of water. NFM is being piloted across the UK and its expansion is an objective of the Government's 25 Year Environment Plan. This POSTnote examines the evidence for the effectiveness of NFM at reducing flood risk, and successful governance approaches to implementing NFM measures.

Abstract:
This summary reviews evidence on the urban flooding impact, risk factors, and management and mitigation measures in Lagos and other cities in Nigeria. Flooding is a common problem every year in many cities across Nigeria, but the impacts of flooding are poorly documented. There is no consistent set of statistics at a national or sub-national level that can be used to compare the impacts of flooding across cities, and reports that focus on particular flood events are often incomplete. The literature notes the principal factors contributing to flood risk including uncontrolled urban growth, inad

Abstract:
Industrial agriculture degrades and destroys wetlands. Changes to the Clean Water Act in 2023 rolled back wetlands protections, further increasing risks to wetlands from corporate agribusiness. The destruction of wetlands disrupts biodiversity, threatens fishing and farming, deteriorates water quality, and compromises climate resilience. Wetland degradation also erodes critical flooding defenses. Amid the Upper Midwest’s intensive agricultural landscape, 30 million acres of wetlands provide nearly $23 billion in annual residential flood mitigation benefits. Over the long term, protecting these

Abstract:
On 21 April 2024, a flood from the glacial lake Birendra Tal was triggered by a massive ice avalanche caused by calving from the Manaslu Glacier. Manaslu, the eighth-highest mountain in the world at 8,163 meters above sea level, is located in west-central Nepal. The displacement wave resulted in the sudden release of water from the lake outlet into the Budhi Gandaki River in Gorkha district. This event was not a typical glacial lake outburst flood (GLOF), as the overflows did not breach the moraine dam, and no significant impact on the dam was observed post-event. However, the threat remains.

Floods are major water-related disasters that affect millions of people resulting in thousands of mortalities and billiondollar losses globally every year. Flood Early Warning Systems (FEWS) - one of the floods risk management measures - are currently operational in many countries. The UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction recognises their importance and strongly advocates for an increase in their availability under the targets of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Abstract:
Climate change and habitat loss are two intersecting issues facing communities and ecosystems in British Columbia’s Lower Mainland. In response to increasingly severe weather, municipalities have invested heavily in engineered defences like floodgates, dikes, and breakwalls, resulting in a profound loss of aquatic and riparian habitat. These lost ecosystems were once critical to local wildlife and provided water management services like flood mitigation and water filtration. Nature-based Solutions offer a unique opportunity to simultaneously address heightened climate risks and habitat loss by

Abstract:
Storm surge and seiche events are generally forced by severe storms, initially resulting in a wind-driven super elevation of water level on one or more sides of a lake (surge) followed by a rebound and periodic oscillation of water levels between opposing sides of the lake (seiche). These events have caused flooding along Lake Erie and significant damages to coastal communities and infrastructure. This study builds upon statistical analysis methods initially developed for the 2012 federal interagency Great Lakes Coastal Flood Study. Using the Coastal Hazards System's stochastic Storm Simulatio
