Flood Risk Assessment and Management How to Specify Hydrological Loads, Their Consequences and Uncertainties /
This book examines many aspects of flood risk management in a comprehensive way. As risks depend on hazard and vulnerabilities, not only geophysical tools for flood forecasting and planning are presented, but also socio-economic problems of flood management are discussed. Starting with precipitation...
