This reprint is related to land-use change and non-urban and urban relationships at all spatiotemporal scales and also focuses on land-use planning and regulatory strategies for a sustainable future. Spatiotemporal dynamics, socioeconomic implication, water supply problems and deforestation land degradation (e.g., increase of imperviousness surfaces) produced by urban expansion and their resource requirements are of particular interest. The Guest Editors expect that this reprint will contribute to sustainable development in non-urban and urban areas.
Research & information: general --- Geography --- land use/land cover change --- water recharge --- flooding --- meteorological forecast --- hydrological response --- IWRM --- best management practices --- watershed management --- experimental watershed study design --- municipal watershed --- adaptive management --- functional urban land --- urban space --- urban land use/cover change --- urbanization --- Changchun --- urban hydrology --- impervious surfaces --- land use scenarios --- urban surface growth --- hydrological model --- flood flows --- construction land development intensity --- construction land use benefit --- coupling and coordination relationship --- spatiotemporal evolution --- Lanzhou-Xining urban agglomeration --- land cover --- land use change --- downscaling approach --- Switzerland --- geographic information system --- aerial photo interpretation --- topographic map --- inverse distance weighting --- expert system --- village --- strategy --- development priorities --- land use --- land take --- urban agriculture --- land use planning --- zoning --- GI products --- integrated water resources management --- territory management --- future scenarios --- prospective analysis --- decision support system --- urban growth boundaries (UGBs) --- LULC change simulation --- multi-source big data --- SD model --- PLUS model --- county area --- Xinxing County

In recent years, a considerable volume of technical literature has been published on flood hazard analysis, and more recently, on flood vulnerability and resilience. Nevertheless, there is still a shortage of scientific studies and practical experience of real flood risk assessment (both social and economic), including hazard, exposure and vulnerability analyses and their integration. As there are so few references available, applications of flood risk assessment to the design of preventive measures and early warning systems, landscape and urban planning, civil protection, insurance systems, and risk-based information and education, cannot reach their full potential development. This is because the research products available, such as hazard data and maps, do not serve to ensure the efficient prioritization of mitigation measures or communities at risk. Meanwhile, flooding is the natural disaster that causes the greatest loss on a global scale, and due to climate change, this situation is expected to continue. The research manuscripts involved in this book try to offer flood risk managers new tools, data and maps to improve risk mitigation, both preventive and corrective. A wide variety of topics have been covered, including: flood risk data sources; techniques and methodologies for flood risk analysis; flood risk mapping; or flood risk analysis calibrations.
Research & information: general --- flood risk assessments --- vulnerability of networks --- emergency management --- geographic information systems --- open source --- flood risk --- LOESS model --- risk map calibration --- 112 emergency service --- central Spain --- PRICAM project --- spatial autocorrelation --- Poisson regression --- eigenvector spatial filtering method --- flood risk evaluation --- Ebro River --- flood mapping --- flood risk areas --- RADAR SAR --- Sentinel-1 --- RGB composition --- calibrated thresholding --- pluvial floods --- flood risk assessment --- climate change --- damages --- vehicles --- properties --- pedestrians --- floods --- fatalities --- circumstances of loss of life --- historical analysis --- levee failures --- database --- flood defences --- levee breach --- cultural heritage --- meso-scale --- flood hazard --- flood vulnerability --- Castile and León --- Spain --- lahar --- Pico de Orizaba --- paleostage indicators --- tree-ring analysis --- RAMMS program --- flood torrential dynamics --- geomorphological threshold --- land-use changes --- ski resort --- hydrological response --- Pyrenees --- glacial lake outburst flood (GLOF) --- debris flow --- Bhote Koshi --- landslides --- Gorkha earthquake --- hazard assessment --- vulnerability indicators --- vulnerability cartography --- AHP --- local analysis --- open public data sources --- economic damage --- building first floor --- magnitude–damage models --- Navaluenga --- flood forecasting --- snow cover control --- flood management --- Tagus Basin --- climate model projections --- Reinosa --- climate change prioritization --- flood risk analysis --- flood damage uncertainty
