Bag om Global Flood Hazard

Global Flood Hazard Flooding is a costly natural disaster in terms of damage to land, property and infrastructure. This volume describes the latest tools and technologies for modeling, mapping, and predicting largeΓÇôscale flood risk. It also presents readers with a range of remote sensing data sets successfully used for predicting and mapping floods at different scales. These resources can enable policymakers, public planners, and developers to plan for, and respond to, flooding with greater accuracy and effectiveness. Describes the latest largeΓÇôscale modeling approaches, including hydrological models, 2ΓÇôD flood inundation models, and global flood forecasting models Showcases new tools and technologies such as Aqueduct, a new webΓÇôbased tool used for global assessment and projection of future flood risk under climate change scenarios Features case studies describing bestΓÇôpractice uses of modeling techniques, tools, and technologies Global Flood Hazard is an indispensable resource for researchers, consultants, practitioners, and policy makers dealing with flood risk, flood disaster response, flood management, and flood mitigation.
