How urban form impacts flooding
Nature Communications, 2023 Abstract Urbanization and climate change are contributing to severe flooding globally, damaging infrastructure, disrupting economies, and undermining human well-being. Approaches to make cities more resilient to floods are emerging, notably with the design of flood-resilient structures, but relatively little is known about the role of

Modeling the high-resolution dynamic exposure to flooding in a city region [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2019 Urban flooding exposure is generally investigated with the assumption of stationary disasters and disaster-hit bodies during an event, and thus it cannot satisfy the increasingly elaborate modeling and management of urban floods.

Flood occurrence analysis in small urban catchments in the context of regional variability.
PLoS ONE, 2022 An original method for analyzing the influence of the meteorological, as well as physical-geographical conditions on the flooding of stormwater in small urban catchment areas is proposed.

Case study: Diagnosing China's prevailing urban flooding—Causes, challenges, and solutions
Journal of Flood Risk Management, 2022 Accompanying its rapid urban development, prevalent urban flooding incidents have been occurring in China in the past two decades with increasing frequency. Through a comparison with generally accepted urban flooding management practices, we (the authors)

Twitter - a new citizen science solution for urban flood database #urban floods #flood database
, 2023 Abstract High spatial heterogeneous behavior of urban floods offers challenges in its monitoring, modeling and assessment, and lack of flood database further increases complexity. This study proposes a twitter-based framework to develop a flood database.

Urban flood simulation based on the SWMM model [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015 China is the nation with the fastest urbanization in the past decades which has caused serious urban flooding. Flood forecasting is regarded as one of the important flood mitigation methods, and is widely used in catchment flood mitigation, but is not ...
