Evolutionary patterns of drought‐flood abrupt alternation events in the Yangtze River Basin, China

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract In recent years, compound extreme events have occurred with increasing frequency worldwide. A specific type of compound extreme event, drought‐flood abrupt alternation (DFAA), has been reported repeatedly, especially in China. Previous studies have revealed that DFAA events mainly occur in south‐eastern China. As the third largest watershed in

Quantification of flash flood peaks using computer simulation for potential hill torrents of Pakistan: A modeling study

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates rainfall runoff behavior of five major torrential Nullahs' of Dera Ghazi Khan (D. G. Khan) for flash flood events. The integration, and fusion of satellite‐based meteorological, topographical, and pedo‐transferred function's (PTF) derived soil hydraulic datasets at 250 m grid size substantially proves a viable approach ...

From Plot to Block: Participatory Land Use for Climate‐Resilient Detached Housing in Finland

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how urban planning in Finland is adapting to climate change, focusing on the practical challenges planners face in single‐family housing areas. It draws on participatory workshops with municipal planners in Pori and Joensuu, where three planning tools—green factor metrics, impermeable surface limits, and the 3–30‐300 ...
