A refined assessment of urban flood resilience

open access: yesShui kexue jinzhan
Refined assessment of urban flood resilience is of great significance for guiding the construction of resilient cities. Based on the “4R” resilience theory (robustness,redundancy,resourcefulness,and rapidity),this study establishes an evaluation index ...

URBAN FLOODING: A SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE

open access: yesRevista de Gestão Ambiental e Sustentabilidade, 2012
Investigate the introduction of environmental considerations in public policy and urban interventions are complex. This article aims to observe the parameters that have been established in plans and projects for the management of storm and river water in urban watercourses located in a variety of cities, looking to raise some essential premises for ...

Climatology and Trends of Sub‐Daily Precipitation Extremes in Croatia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Sub‐daily extreme precipitation indices reveal pronounced spatial variability, with the highest intensities and frequencies across the Adriatic region and the highlands. Seasonal and diurnal patterns highlight distinct regional behaviour, including summer maxima over the continental interior and nocturnal or early‐morning peaks along the Adriatic coast.

Low‐Intensity Precipitation Dominates Peninsular Spain (1961–2022)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Spatial analysis across Spain shows a shift in precipitation regimes (1961–2022) toward more frequent low‐intensity precipitation and reduced high‐intensity events, with localised increases in heavy precipitation along some coastal areas. This redistribution—captured through changes in precipitation frequency (RF) and volumetric contribution (RC ...

Satellite and Reanalysis Dataset Dependence of ETCCDI Extreme Precipitation Trends in Paraná, Southern Brazil

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Extreme precipitation trends detected in Paraná, Southern Brazil (1983–2024), are strongly conditioned by the dataset used, with reanalyses indicating coherent inland drying and longer dry spells, observations retaining stronger mesoscale heterogeneity, and satellite products often showing declines in short‐duration extremes. Monthly diagnostics reveal

A New Hydroclimatic Signature: Negative NAO Dominance Under Weak La Niña Conditions During the 2025–2026 Northwest Africa Floods

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Conceptual hydroclimatic pathway linking the concurrent negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) phase and weak La Niña conditions to extreme February rainfall and flash flooding in Northwest Africa. ABSTRACT The winter of 2025–2026 in Morocco exhibited a rapid hydroclimatic transition from prolonged drought to widespread flooding, representing an ...
