Advancing the Representation of Human Actions in Large‐Scale Hydrological Models: Challenges and Future Research Directions

Water Resources Research
Characterizing the impact of human actions on terrestrial water fluxes and storages at multi‐basin, continental, and global scales has long been on the agenda of scientists engaged in climate science, hydrology, and water resources systems analysis. This

Cultivating Collaborative Water Leaders: The Power of Experiential Learning

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Water systems in the American West are under mounting stress as climate change accelerates aridification and tensions grow over competing demands for scarce water resources. As socio‐ecological pressures compound, siloed thinking and governance undermine the development of innovative water management approaches.

Searching for Comparative International Water Research: Urban and Rural Water Conservation Research in India and the United States [PDF]

, 2014
Comparison is common in water management research: every table, map, and graph invites comparisons of different places and variables. Detailed international comparisons, however, seem infrequent in water resources research.

Optimizing LID Practices in the Genoa Urban Drainage System Based on the Community's Call for Action Through Participatory Mapping

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel methodology for optimizing installation of low impact development practices (LIDs) in an urban hydrological catchment. This methodology helps stakeholders in deciding on what kind and area of LID must be installed in each sub‐catchment to attenuate pluvial flooding as a result of intense rain events.

Data Resolution and Model Complexity in Pluvial Flood Risk Assessment: Insights and Trade‐Offs

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The increasing severity and frequency of urban pluvial floods has prompted numerous research studies on pluvial flood risk assessment. However, the literature reveals significant variability in the data resolutions and model types employed.

Comparative Effectiveness and Future Viability of Flood Control Adaptation Measures Under a Changing Climate and a Declining Population

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Adaptation measures play a crucial role in mitigating the increasing severity of flood disasters driven by climate change. While various strategies are implemented globally, their geographical characteristics and long‐term effectiveness remain uncertain.

From Forecast to Action: Using Flood Impact Storylines to Optimize Mobile Levee Deployment and Emergency Response Strategies

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Preparing for unprecedented natural hazard events is challenging because the lack of records and experience makes it impossible to know how such events will unfold. Repeated record‐breaking floods in central Europe have increased awareness of the need for proactive planning beyond observed extremes.

Reviewing the Levee Effect: From Theory to Practice

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Ongoing development in flood‐prone areas has intensified focus on flood‐risk management strategies. Constructed flood protections, like levees, lead to a false sense of security. Resulting development behind levees paradoxically increases flood risk, referred to as the levee effect.

Rainstorm Flood Risk Assessment in the China–Pakistan Economic Corridor Under Different Shared Socioeconomic Pathways of the 21st Century

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Global warming has intensified the atmospheric water cycle, leading to more frequent and severe extreme precipitation events, which are a major driver of rainstorm‐induced flooding. Developing regions such as the China–Pakistan economic corridor (CPEC), spanning highly heterogeneous terrain and climate zones, face elevated risk due to limited ...
