Urban and river flooding: Comparison of flood risk management approaches in the UK and China and an assessment of future knowledge needs [PDF]

, 2019
Increased urbanisation, economic growth, and long-term climate variability have made both the UK and China more susceptible to urban and river flooding, putting people and property at increased risk.

Integrating Satellite Data Into Meso‐Scale Habitat Modeling for Non‐Perennial Rivers and Streams

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Non‐perennial rivers and streams (NPRs) are widespread and projected to become more common, yet effective tools for their characterization and management remain limited. This study introduces a novel approach to assess aquatic habitat availability in NPRs, applied to a regulated reach of the Sangone River (Northern Italy).

Application of HEC-RAS in 2D Dam Break Simulation-A Case Study of Hongqi Reservoir

Renmin Zhujiang, 2021
This paper simulates the dam break of Hongqi reservoir by HEC-RAS software,studies the discharge hydrograph of breach,the local flow pattern downstream of the breach,the propagation of dam break flood wave in flood area and the life loss caused by dam break flood,discusses the distribution of flood velocity and flood inundation depth,and draws the risk

Assessing the Effectiveness of Nature‐Based Solutions and Building‐Level Flood Risk Reduction Measures: An Open‐Source Coupled Model

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Floods are expected to increase in frequency and severity due to climate change. Recent floods have shown that many catchments worldwide are vulnerable to floods, highlighting the need for additional adaptation measures. This study extends the Geographical, Environmental, and Behavioral (GEB) model by coupling it to a hydrodynamic and a flood ...

Modelling glacial lake outburst flood impacts in the Bolivian Andes [PDF]

, 2018
The Bolivian Andes have experienced sustained and widespread glacier mass loss in recent decades. Glacier recession has been accompanied by the development of proglacial lakes, which pose a glacial lake outburst flood (GLOF) risk to downstream ...

Enhancing Urban Flood Loss Mapping by Integrating ANFIS Classifier With a Two‐Dimensional Hydrodynamic Model

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Flood loss mapping is one of the essential prerequisites for urban flood assessment studies to identify areas vulnerable to floods and to make cities safe and resilient. This study develops a neuro‐fuzzy loss model to generate flood loss maps, classifying loss levels into several categories ranging from no loss to severe loss.

Optimizing Flood Hazard Zonation and Planning Landscape‐Based Mitigation Measures in Gimba Sub Watersheds, Northeastern Ethiopia: A Comprehensive Approach

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most critical natural hazards threatening livelihoods, infrastructure, and ecological systems in Ethiopia's highland landscapes. This study presents a rigorously integrated, multi‐criteria flood risk assessment that combines the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) with GIS‐based spatial modeling to delineate ...
