Evaluation of the effect of land use/cover change on flood characteristics using an integrated approach coupling land and flood analysis

Land use/cover change (LUCC) is one of the crucial factors influencing the hydrological process, thus the flood characteristics in time and space. Therefore the evaluation of the change of flood characteristics implies an integrated analysis of LUCC and hydraulic simulation. In this study, the effec...
