Socio-hydrology: conceptualising human-flood interactions [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013
Over history, humankind has tended to settle near streams because of the role of rivers as transportation corridors and the fertility of riparian areas. However, human settlements in floodplains have been threatened by the risk of flooding.

A prototype framework for models of socio-hydrology: identification of key feedback loops and parameterisation approach [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2014
It is increasingly acknowledged that, in order to sustainably manage global freshwater resources, it is critical that we better understand the nature of human–hydrology interactions at the broader catchment system scale. Yet to date, a generic conceptual
