Title: Investigating the public perception of green, hybrid and grey flood risk management measures in Europe Abstract: Climate change is expected to affect the frequency and magnitude of floods, which are among the costliest hazards in Europe. As natural hazards READ MORE
Title: On the right track of flood planning policy? Land uptake in Central-European floodplains (1990–2018) Abstract: Floods continue to remain among the costliest disasters worldwide and especially in Europe. Among the major causes of flooding are human impacts on water READ MORE
Title: Natural/Small Water Retention Measures: Their Contribution to Ecosystem-Based Concepts Abstract: The increasing incidence of droughts and heavy rainfall events is exacerbating conflicts between human and environmental demands for water. However, through providing multiple water-related ecosystem services and benefits simultaneously, READ MORE
Title: Multidimensional resilience – flood recovery on private land Abstract: Flood damages are increasing and thus flood resilience is gaining importance. Various definitions of resilience and the identification of different resilience dimensions have been the focus of past research, but there READ MORE
Title: Mitigation of Concurrent Flood and Drought Risks Through Land Modifications: Potential and Perspectives of Land Users Abstract: Modifications to land can serve to jointly reduce risks of floods and droughts to people and to ecosystems. Whether land modifications are implemented READ MORE
Title: Reducing flood risk by effective use of flood-peak polders: A case study of the Tisza River Abstract Between 1998 and 2006 a series of extreme flood events took place on the Tisza River and its tributaries. In Hungary, this triggered READ MORE
Title: Land Policy for Flood Risk Management—Toward a New Working Paradigm Abstract Flood risk management (FRM) aims to integrate necessary technical measures with environmental and societal approaches. Focusing on the process and governance of how to plan, implement, and maintain solutions READ MORE
Title: Combining Flood Risk Mitigation and Carbon Sequestration to Optimize Sustainable Land Management Schemes: Experiences from the Middle-Section of Hungary’s Tisza River Abstract The record floods experienced along the Tisza River between 1998 and 2001 brought a paradigm shift in infrastructural READ MORE
Title: Identifying barriers for nature-based solutions in flood risk management: An interdisciplinary overview using expert community approach Abstract The major event that hit Europe in summer 2021 reminds society that floods are recurrent and among the costliest and deadliest natural hazards. The READ MORE
Title: Spatial Flood Risk Management: Implementing Catchment-based Retention and Resilience on Private Land Content: Centralising the role of land and landowners, Spatial Flood Risk Management brings together knowledge from socio-economy, public policy, hydrology, geomorphology, and engineering to establish an interdisciplinary knowledge base READ MORE
