Dr. Behrooz Balaei and colleagues studied the technical factors affecting the resilience of water supply systems to disasters.
How Flooding in a Changing Climate and Urbanisation Presents Opportunities
Traditional approach to water and flood management treats water as a "problem" and so, engineer-led. A new approach sees water as a potential opportunity.
Trade-offs Between Climate Change Adaptation and Urban Planning
To address climate change and urbanization, prioritizing climate adaptation and mitigation in land use planning is essential.
