Floods are probably the most hazardous global natural event as well as the main cause of human losses and economic damage. They are often hard to predict, but their consequences may be reduced by taking the right precautions. In this sense, hydraulic inf...

Floods are the most common and costliest natural disaster in Australia. However, the Flood Risk Assessments (FRAs) employed to manage them are hazard-focused and tend to overlook exposure and vulnerability. This leaves potential for Australian FRAs to ma...

This paper introduces a new simple approach for dam-break hazard mapping in a data-sparse region. A hypothetical breaching case of an earthen dam, i.e., the Ketro Dam in Central Java, (Indonesia) was considered. Open-access hydrological databases, i.e., ...

Standardized crime rates (e.g., ?homicides per 100,000 people?) are commonly used in crime analysis as indicators of victimization risk but are prone to several issues that can lead to bias and error. In this study, a more robust approach (GWRisk) is pro...

Climate trends suggest an increase in the frequency of intense rainfall events and the aggravation of existing conditions in terms of flooding in urban areas. In coastal areas, conditions are aggravated by coexistence with coastal overtopping. Flood risk...
