Does economic activity move away from areas that are at high risk of recurring shocks? We examine this question in the context of floods, which displaced more than 650 million people worldwide in the last 35 years. We study large urban floods using spatially detailed inundation maps and night lights data spanning the globe’s cities.

Three different conceptual frameworks of resilience, including engineering, ecological and social–ecological have been presented and framed within the context of flood risk management. Engineering resilience has demonstrated its value in the design and operation of technological systems in general and in flood resilient technologies in particular ...

A new screening method of low permeability reservoirs suitable for CO2 flooding
Since the existing gas flooding reservoir screening criteria lack economic indexes reflecting future dynamic production performances, indexes reflecting economic profits are added into the exiting criteria (related to well oil production rate) to form a ...

Causes and consequences of floods: flash floods, urban floods, river floods and coastal floods
Undoubtedly, the flood is known as a natural disaster. But in practice, the flood is considered the most terrible natural disaster in terms of mortality and financial losses. In this regard, a worrying trend is the increasing trend of mortality and flood damage in the world in recent decades.
