Regional Flood Emergency Capacity Assessment Based on a Multidimensional Framework

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Knowing the status of emergency capacity for disaster risk reduction helps the government and stakeholders to minimize vulnerabilities and disaster risk. However, there is no widely applied methodology for emergency capacity assessment. This study develops a multidimensional framework integrating vulnerability, susceptibility, and adaptability

An Integrated Approach to Determine Appropriate Stormwater Management Strategies for Urban Areas With Various Land‐Uses: The Case of Güneysu

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study focuses on a multi‐criteria decision‐making (MCDM) analysis backed by EPA's SWMM (storm water management model) to investigate stormwater management (SM) strategies for urban areas consisting of different land‐use types. Güneysu city center (Rize, Türkiye) is used to exemplify areas consisting of impermeable surfaces, blocks of ...

Do Storm Characteristics Affect Urban Flood and Its Control? Assessment of Urban Drainage System Considering Rainfall Spatial Variability

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The interaction between rainfall spatial–temporal variability and watershed response has been extensively studied in recent decades. Due to the influence of spatiotemporal non‐uniformity and variability in urban rainfall processes, the urban drainage system can exhibit different capabilities of handling flood risk.

Coupling Waterlogging Hazard Assessment Based on SWMM–LISFLOOD Simulation in Chaoyang River Basin of Nanning, China

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban stormwater waterlogging poses significant threats to public safety and property, making scientific and effective risk management a crucial element in China's whole‐area sponge city construction. This study evaluates waterlogging hazards in Nanning's Chaoyang River Basin using a SWMM–LISFLOOD coupled model to simulate 11 design storm ...

Evaluating Urban Drainage System Efficiency Under Dynamic Environmental Changes Using Hydrodynamic Modeling and Bayesian Network

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban drainage systems play an essential role in stormwater management. However, conventional evaluation methods typically focused on individual performance indicators and failed to account for the compound effects of multiple environmental factors. To address this gap, an integrated probabilistic‐hydrodynamic framework was proposed, combining

Unifying the Scaling of Urban Heat Island With Surface Heat Flux Under Calm Conditions

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract How the urban heat island effect (UHI) responds to surface heat flux is a central question in urban climate research. Previous studies have reported two distinct scaling relations: nighttime UHI scales with heat flux to the one‐third power, while daytime UHI scales with heat flux to the two‐thirds power.

Impervious Surface Methodology: A Methodology for Defining and Assessing Impervious Surfaces in the Raritan River Basin

, 2000
In an effort to estimate and evaluate impervious cover throughout the Raritan Basin, this methodology was developed to explore the technical and policy decisions involved in the estimation process. This methodology defines impervious surface areas, states reasons to be concerned about impervious cover, and presents several methods of deriving ...

Impervious Surface Cover Concepts and Thresholds

, 2000
This report examines the relationship between impervious surface cover and nonpoint source runoff and the concomitant adverse impacts on water quality, aquatic communities, habitat, and water quantity. Impervious surfaces can be defined as any material that prevents the infiltration of water into the soil; for example sidewalks, patios, compacted soil ...

Impacts of impervious surface on watershed hydrology: A review

Urban Water Journal, 2005
Increased impervious surface area is a consequence of urbanization, with correspondent and significant effects on the hydrologic cycle. It is intuitive that an increased proportion of impervious surface brings with it shorter lag times between onset of precipitation and subsequently higher runoff peaks and total volume of runoff in receiving waters ...
