Recent Advances in Flood Risk:Prediction, Monitoring, Assessment,Management, Mitigation and Adaptation Planning
Session ID#: 246755
Session Description:
Worldwide, frequency and intensity of extreme floods are increasing, causing direct consequences in terms of loss of life and properties. Cutting-edge monitoring and simulation technologies have become instrumental for guiding flood risk management. A range of physical/conceptual hydrological and hydrodynamic models and data-driven models (e.g., Artificial Intelligence, which includes Machine Learning) with their associated uncertainties are available to inform flood risk assessment and management, including prevention and preparedness. Such techniques provide a platform for the scientific community to explore the drivers of flood risk and to build up effective approaches for flood risk mitigation. The objective of this session is to invite fundamental and applied research work carried out for flood inundation mapping, flood hazard mapping, risk assessment, and flood risk management. Particular topics such as 1D, 2D and 3D modelling for flood risk assessment, emergency action planning, evacuation planning, break analysis and their associated uncertainties are also welcome.
