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

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 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.

Can Flash Flood Risk Index Be an Early Warning Signal of Flash Floods in Ungauged Basin?
ABSTRACT Flash flooding is amongst the most severe natural hazards, causing widespread socioeconomic impacts across both wet regions and drylands. In ungauged mountainous basins, effective risk warning based on hydrodynamic modelling is challenging due to sparse hydrological observations and complex terrain.

ABSTRACT This article develops a two‐component mixture model combining the weighted Inverse Rayleigh (WIR) distribution and Gumbel Type‐II distribution for the estimation and prediction of flood events. The study utilizes 29 years (1990–2018) of flood data from the Federal Flood Commission (FFC) of Pakistan for the Jhelum River, using two gauging ...
