Extreme Flood Dynamics in a Changing World: Catchment Responses, Modeling, Mapping, and Management
Session ID#: 250067
Session Description:
Climate variability and rapid environmental change are altering catchment responses, making floods more extreme and unpredictable. These changes, characterized by evolving flood dynamics and connectivity patterns, challenge existing prediction tools and require a deeper understanding of ongoing shifts in flood behavior. We invite contributions addressing these challenges by advancing the understanding of flood dynamics in changing environments to inform the management of extreme fluvial and pluvial floods. We seek submissions on (but not limited to): (i) flood generation mechanisms and catchment responses through experimental, physically-based, or data-driven approaches, (ii) advancements in hydrological modeling and theory, (iii) scalable approaches for flood mapping and modeling, and (iv) case studies of extreme floods with lessons on resilience. Additionally, we welcome contributions exploring how these (v) findings can be effectively communicated to decision-makers, bridging the science-policy gap. This session aims to integrate process understanding, innovative methods, and actionable solutions to address real-world flood challenges.
