Urban flooding has become a serious issue in most Chinese cities due to rapid urbanization and extreme weather, as evidenced by severe events Beijing (2012), Ningbo (2013), Guangzhou (2015), Wuhan (2016), Shenzhen (2019), Chongqing (2020). The “Sponge City Program” (SCP), initiated 2013 adopted 30 pilot cities, is developing solutions manage urban flood risk, purify stormwater, provide water storage opportunities for future usage. Emerging challenges the continued implementation of Sponge...
Despite indicators-based assessment models for flood vulnerability being a well-established methodology, specific set of indicators that are universally or widely accepted has not been recognized yet. This work aims to review previous studies in the field analysis order overcome this knowledge gap identifying most sub-indicators exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity. Moreover, clarify use terms risk assessment. Throughout three-phase process, matrix containing all encountered during...
Although increasing concern about climate change has raised awareness of the fundamental role forest ecosystems, forests are threatened by human-induced impacts worldwide. Among them, wildfire risk is clearly result interaction between human activities, ecological domains, and climate. However, a clear understanding these interactions still needed both at global local levels. Numerous studies have proven validity socioecological system (SES) approach in addressing this kind interdisciplinary...
Cities are vulnerable to extreme weather events, particularly by considering flash flood risk as a result of even more short-duration intensive rainfall. In the context climate change, compound flooding due simultaneous storm surges and increased runoff may further exacerbate in coastal cities, it is expected be frequent severe across several European urban areas. Despite this increasing evidence, spatial knowledge hazardous events/vulnerabilities through modelling scenarios at level quite...
