Assessing Future Flood Risk and Developing Integrated Flood Risk Management Strategies: A Case Study from the UK Climate Change Risk Assessment

چکیده
As Earth’s climate changes, individual nations must develop adaptation plans to respond increasing or new risks. This study focuses on changing flood risk in England, UK, and examines the policy framework actions that underpin England’s from a management (FRM) perspective. Specifically, projections fed into UK’s Climate Change Risk Assessment were analysed alongside newly developed FRM portfolios modified identify potential of different measures reduce Expected Annual Damages (EAD). The key findings indicate that: range EAD for all sources combined is projected increase by 18–160% 2080s depending change, population growth assumptions applied; adopting an enhanced approach presents opportunity manage much driven change risk, particularly river flooding; coastal shows greatest relative present day; surface water flooding will become increasingly more significant source risk. Interpretation results context how greater coordination integration managers interventions required improve planning.

Flood is considered as a major threat among natural disasters in the world. This case becomes more important and has a higher risk in urban areas due to the existence of important uses. Therefore, to reduce damages resulted from flood, this phenomenon must be managed and planned using structural and non-structural approaches. Considering the development in Iran has been carried out in high risk...
