Hydrodynamic system behaviour: its analysis and implications for flood risk management

Hydrodynamic system behaviour: its analysis and implications for flood risk management

Knowledge on the different components of flood risk has much improved over the last decades, but research which fully takes into account not only the interactions between those components but also between different areas in a catchment or delta is still rare. Integrated analyses based on a complete...
