Special Issue on Flood Risk Management

Flood risk management involves the comprehensive approach to reducing the potential for flood disasters and mitigating their impacts. It encompasses activities such as assessing flood hazards, developing prevention and mitigation strategies, creating early warning systems, and planning for emergency response and recovery. Effective flood risk management requires a multi-disciplinary approach, involving collaboration between government agencies, communities, and experts in various fields to ensure sustainable and resilient solutions are implemented. The goal of this special issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in the area of Flood Risk Management.
