An Agent Based Modelling tool exploring decision-making processes for flood risk management
(Corresponding) Koutiva I., Makropoulos C.
Topic:
Water policy, management and society
Cities at risk of extreme hydro-meteorological events need to be prepared to decrease the extent of the impacts. However, the majority usually reacts to the catastrophe, having failed to proactively prepare against extremes. This can be a result of both absent structural protection measures and...Read more

Uncertainty aspects of 2D flood modelling in a benchmark case study
(Corresponding) Bellos V., Tsihrintzis V.
Topic:
Prediction in ungauged basins and prediction under uncertainty
In this study, we investigate the contribution of several uncertainty drivers towards the total uncertainty of a 2D flood model, in a benchmark case study under steady flow conditions. The simulator used for the analysis is the in-house FLOW-R2D software, whilst the benchmark case study consists of...Read more
Development of flood risk maps using Remote Sensing Techniques in Cyprus
(Corresponding) Kountouri J., Mettas C., Evagorou E., Hadjimitsis D.
Topic:
Floods, droughts and water scarcity
Floods are the most devastating natural disasters and are likely to become more frequent, dominant, and severe due to climate change, population growth, urbanization, and other factors related to watersheds and human activities. A flood can be defined as a body of water that causes runoff to land...Read more
