Published in 2018 at "Natural Hazards"

DOI: 10.1007/s11069-018-3244-9

Abstract: Flood is a natural hazard affecting human life and ecosystem globally causing catastrophic disasters. Most flood-induced socioeconomic losses are exacerbated by unabated urban development, population upsurge, unregulated municipal systems, and indiscriminate land use. Therefore, implementation… read more here.
