A Machine Learning Framework for Flood Risk Assessment With Imbalanced Data
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.ABSTRACT This study presents a machine‐learning framework for identifying areas of elevated flood risk using imbalanced, high‐dimensional geospatial datasets. Using the Mandra River Basin in Greece as a case study, an extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) classifier was trained on 11 flood‐related features including hydrological, meteorological, soil and

Deviant Behaviours in Flood Risk Management: A Novel Typology
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.ABSTRACT Flooding has become an increasing threat across the globe and risk is likely to rise in the coming decades. In this context, individuals and communities are expected to assume certain tasks and responsibilities, including following the rules and guidance of flood risk management (FRM) agencies. However, such collaboration does not always align

Rethinking Potential Flood Damage Assessment: A Data‐Driven Alternative to Varnes‐Based Models
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.ABSTRACT Reducing flood damage is a key challenge for both administrators and communities, particularly in the face of increasing climate‐related impacts. A fundamental prerequisite for effective damage reduction is a detailed understanding of the spatial distribution of territorial susceptibility to flood damage.

Perceiving Protection: Public Interpretation of Institutions in Managed Flood Settings
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.ABSTRACT Floods rank among the most frequent and widely managed hazards worldwide. While considerable research has examined public perceptions of flood risk, less attention has been paid to how people interpret institutional presence, action, and responsibility in flood‐prone settings shaped by infrastructure and governance systems. This paper presents

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.Modern confined masonry (CM) construction consists of masonry walls confined by reinforced concrete (RC) tie‐columns and tie‐beams. When built correctly, CM buildings have shown good performance in earthquake's shaking. Even though CM construction has been practised for almost a century in some Latin American countries, its use and standardisation are ...
