Investigating SME resilience to flooding : the Braunton report (2015)
Book
Ingirige, B., & Russell, R. (2015). Investigating SME resilience to flooding : the Braunton report. Salford: University of Salford

The number of major floods in Europe has risen from one per year (between 1900 and 1974) to 15 a year (between 1993 and 2001). Many parts of the UK have faced extensive flooding in recent years, notably during the winter of 2013/14, and climate chang...
