The Royal Society have published an issue of philosophical transactions on urban flood resilience.
This issue compiles a series of scientific articles demonstrating developments in:
- understanding the changing drivers of flooding
- flood modelling
- multifunctional infrastructure and their benefits
- social, community and economic interaction with flood management interventions
- effectiveness of flood recovery responses
Flood infrastructure, which is resilient to climate change and increasing urbanisation is a global challenge. International examples have been used to demonstrate how countries are becoming more resilient.
