Past attempts to estimate rainfall-driven flood risk across the US either have incomplete
coverage, coarse resolution or use overly simplified models of the flooding process. In this …

Flooding can cause major disruptions in cities, and lead to significant impacts on people, the
economy and on the environment. These impacts may be exacerbated by climate and socio …

Managing flood risk, ie both the hazard and the potential consequences, is an important
aspect of adapting to global change and has gained much traction in recent decades. As a …

An accurate understanding of flood risk and its drivers is crucial for effective risk
management. Detailed risk projections, including uncertainties, are however rarely …

Damage assessments of natural hazards supply crucial information to decision support and
policy development in the fields of natural hazard management and adaptation planning to …

There is a wide variety of flood damage models in use internationally, differing substantially
in their approaches and economic estimates. Since these models are being used more and …

Numerical modelling is a reliable tool for flood simulations, but accurate solutions are
