Floods cause distress and damage wherever and whenever they happen. Flooding from rivers, estuaries and the sea threatens many millions of people worldwide and economic and insurance losses from flooding have increased significantly since 1990. Based on the work of leading researchers, this book provides an overview of advances in this important subject. It covers all aspects of flood risk including the causes of floods; their impacts on people, property and the environment; and portfolios of risk management measurement. Additional topics include climate change, estimation of extremes, flash floods, flood forecasting and warning, inundation modeling, systems analysis, uncertainty, international programs, and flood defense infrastructure and assets. The book also examines environmental, human, and social impacts; vulnerability and resilience; risk sharing; and civil contingency planning and emergency management.

Before The Sun Sets and They Are Forgotten is a non-fictional book where each chapter chronicles the life of an elder things they accomplished and were proud of, mistakes they made and lessons they learned. The stories will entertain you, touch you and teach you. The people interviewed ranged in age from sixty-nine to ninety-six years old, from high school dropouts to those with doctorates, and from stay-at-home mothers to university professors. Some stories had heartbreaking elements and inspirational outcomes. The lessons in every story will get you to reflect on your life and reassess values and beliefs you hold dear.
