Attributes influencing the flood risk perception in rural communities
A compact multi-hazard assessment model to identify urban areas prone to heat islands, floods and particulate matter
Urbanization and climate change intensify environmental hazards such as the Surface Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect, the concentration of Particulate Matter 10 μm or less in diameter (PM10) and flooding. These hazards are common in cities, driven by factors such as land cover changes, energy consumption, road traffic, soil sealing and proximity to water. To address the gaps identified in previous studies, which focus on modelling single hazards an…
Vulnerability to urban flooding assessed based on spatial demographic, socio-economic and infrastructure inequalities
Urban flooding is a priority in natural risk management and mitigation because it is the most frequent natural disaster in densely urbanised environments. This research explores flood vulnerability in cities by developing an index that can be easily implemented across the world. Our methodology is based on the arrangement of a series variables into three different classes (demography, socioeconomics and infrastructure) and the determination of th…
ArcDrain: A GIS Add-In for Automated Determination of Surface Runoff in Urban Catchments
Surface runoff determination in urban areas is crucial to facilitate ex ante water planning, especially in the context of climate and land cover changes, which are increasing the frequency of floods, due to a combination of violent storms and increased imperviousness. To this end, the spatial identification of urban areas prone to runoff accumulation is essential, to guarantee effective water management in the future. Under these premises, this w…
