Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Urban flood management is an important part of urban water supply, water drainage, and water safety management. It is a hot topic in current urban hydrological research, as well as the scientific basis for urban green and sustainable development, scientific planning, and construction. It is closely related to urban residents' health and flood control safety. This Special Issue’s main research topics include urban waterlogging, urban flood disaster, urban stormwater management, urban low-impact development, sponge city design and construction, urban hydrological cycle, urban water security, urban water resources, urban water environment and water ecology, cause analysis of urban flood disaster, disaster loss evaluation, rainstorm-flood emergency technology, urban rainstorm-flood countermeasures, risk assessment and management of urban flood disasters, etc. Research articles, review articles, and other articles covering related fields and research topics are highly welcome.
