Dynamic Human‐Vehicle Risk Assessment for Urban Flood Evacuations in Island Cities: The MUFE Framework Applied to Haidian Island, Haikou

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban flood disasters demand dynamic assessment of population risk, yet most evacuation models fail to capture the multifaceted, time‐varying nature of such events. To address this gap, this study develops the modular urban flood‐evacuation (MUFE) framework, an integrated approach to dynamic urban flood risk assessment.

Building Treatment and Its Effects on City‐Scale Urban Flood Modeling

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Physics‐based flood hydrodynamic models are widely used for predicting inundation in urban basins with complex building layouts. While the treatment of urban buildings in these models has been extensively discussed, over‐assumptions can introduce inaccuracies, uncertainties, and excessive computational effort, particularly under data‐scarce ...

Revealing Deep Learning Model Preferences for Spatio‐Temporal Drivers of Runoff Forecasting: A SHAP‐Based Comparative Study

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate runoff forecasting is essential for flood prediction and disaster preparedness amid increasing hydrological extremes driven by climate change. While deep learning models offer high efficiency, most interpretability studies focus on single models.

Understanding the Decentralised School Food Procurement Model in Ghana Through the Lens of School Caterers: A Photovoice Study

Maternal &Child Nutrition, Volume 22, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The Ghana School Feeding Programme (GFSP) operates a decentralised procurement model, in which school caterers are responsible for: selecting, purchasing, transporting, preparing, delivering and distributing school meals. However, caterers' views and experiences are rarely taken into account. This study aimed to better understand GSFP caterers'
