Applications for dealing with Floods within Global and local experiences
Cities encounter various risks, and flood disasters are one of the most frequent, leading to significant economic loss. The uncertainty of external shocks makes it necessary to bring disaster processes into the assessment of urban flood resilience.
However, current resilience assessment lacked the consideration of disaster stages to support urban planning. Thus, focusing on urban flood resilience, we should propose a “resistance-adaptation-recovery” assessing framework in view of the three stages of flood disasters (before, during and after),
Four kinds of urban resilience zones must be identified, which showed spatial distribution of overall dispersion and local concentration.
The impacts of indicator weights and specialized suggestions for each resilience
It is a crucial need to propose an urban flood resilience assessment framework, which is helpful to identify the way to promote a resilient city for urban planning.
