Flood Risks Management :State of Practice
Author(s): Jamie Amelia*
A thorough investigation of flood dangers will be required, starting with hydrometeorological evaluations of runoff and flow and concluding with an evaluation of the vulnerability of individuals at risk. Although there is a lot of knowledge on these subjects, climate change, population increase, and changing land uses provide data issues for flood risk assessments.This paper reviews the current state of the practise of assessing flood risk, including flood scenarios, hydrometeorology, inundation modelling, flood frequency analysis, interrelationships with water infrastructure, and vulnerability of people and places. Recent studies have provided comprehensive reviews of advancements in the water sciences arena. There is a substantial body of study on each of these subjects. While some of the techniques in these fields, like hydrologic modelling, have decades' worth of research adva.. View More»
