Community Voices in Action: A Framework for Flood Resilience Workshops in a Coastal Community
Abstract Coastal communities face increasing risks from hurricanes, heavy rainfall, sea‐level rise, and flooding—all of which are intensified by climate change. Many of these communities are striving to plan proactively in advance of the next severe event; involving community members alongside managers, scientists, and other stakeholders in the ...

A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes
ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...

ABSTRACT China has complex topography, diverse flood mechanisms, and high population exposure, making it highly vulnerable to flooding, highlighting the need for robust national‐scale hazard assessments to identify flood‐prone regions. However, most existing hazard studies are limited to regional scales or rely on empirical indicator‐based methods that

Geospatial Analysis of Population Exposure to Flooding in the Sudd Region, South Sudan
ABSTRACT The Sudd wetland in South Sudan extends over 90,000 km2. Large‐scale flood events in recent years (2019–2022) are said to have led to the displacement of an estimated 1.8 million people in total. However, these estimates are approximate and to date there has not been a systematic analysis of population exposure to flooding in the Sudd region ...

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 ...

ABSTRACT Climate change, with its links to an intensified water cycle, heavier rainfall, and potentially higher flood peaks, raises concerns about the adequacy of current flood risk management. The devastating July 2021 floods in western Europe underscored these concerns, highlighting the need for transboundary cooperation and shared expertise in ...

Flood Risk Communications Through Maps: Challenges, Perception Theories and Approaches
ABSTRACT Flood risk communication is a core component of flood risk management, yet persistent challenges limit its effectiveness in supporting public understanding, preparedness and adaptive behaviour. Here, we examine flood risk maps as communication tools at the interface of scientific modelling, visual design, and human risk perception.
