Description:
Plenty of studies are warning that the risk of flooding is rapidly rising due to the overlapping effects of climate change and fast urbanization. The emerging concept of flood resilience investigates the capacity of social systems in dealing with flood impacts, but the relevant knowledge system remains incomplete. While different flood management measures were debated at various levels for a long time, decision-making is hampered by multiple scientific knowledge gaps and the lack of effective measures at specific areas. Given the intricate and interconnected nature of flood resilience, there is an urgent need for focused, multidisciplinary observations that target the mechanisms and assessment of resilience systems across various scales. With this in mind, this session aims to integrate multidisciplinary perspectives and discuss methods and approaches for flood resilience research, to help establish a foundational knowledge base for future research and policy development.
The session aims to facilitate the exchange between researchers from multiple disciplines on the current state of flood resilience studies and particularly on methodology development. Submissions of research abstracts are welcome in particularly on topics of (but not limited to):
• Research progresses in the field of flood resilience
• Assessment and/or modeling of social resilience to flood impacts
• Theoretical and/or empirical studies of flood resilience
• Comparison of flood resilience over space and time
• Measures that could enhance social resilience to flood impacts
