| Zusammenfassung |
| This article presents a methodology for estimating flood risk in urban areas
integrating pluvial flooding, river flooding and failure of both small and
large dams. The first part includes a review of basic concepts on flood risk
analysis, evaluation and management. Flood risk analyses may be developed at
local, regional and national level, however a general methodology to perform
a quantitative flood risk analysis including different flood hazards is
still required. The second part describes the proposed methodology, which
presents an integrated approach – combining pluvial, river flooding and
flooding from dam failure, as applied to a case study: an urban area located
downstream of a dam under construction. The methodology enhances the
approach developed within the SUFRI project ("Sustainable Strategies of
Urban Flood Risk Management to cope with the residual risk", 2009–2011).
This article also shows how outcomes from flood risk analysis provide better
and more complete information to inform authorities, local entities and the
stakeholders involved in decision-making with regard to flood risk
management. |
