Beskrivning

The management of flood events is part of society’s overall approach to dealing with natural disasters. The interdisciplinary linkage of key topics and the integration of perspectives from different stakeholders enable more effective and coordinated flood emergency management. The structure chosen for this book is intentionally designed for a broad readership in order to reach these various actors with different professional backgrounds.Successful and effective flood emergency management requires thorough preparation for a range of flood scenarios. This also includes a well‑founded analysis of the flood event itself and the associated emergency management measures before, during, and after the event. Although every flood event has its own specific characteristics and depends on a wide variety of meteorological, hydrological, spatial, and, not least, socio‑political conditions, fundamental insights can nevertheless be derived from the respective flood emergency management strategies and measures.
