Drivers of changing urban flood risk : a framework for action (2019)
Journal Article

This study focuses on drivers for changing urban flood risk. We suggest a framework for guiding climate change adaptation action concerning flood risk and manageability in cities. The identified key drivers of changing flood hazard and vulnerability... Read More about Drivers of changing urban flood risk : a framework for action.
