Effectiveness of a Dam-Breach Flood Alert in Mitigating Life Losses: A Spatiotemporal Sectorisation Analysis in a High-Density Urban Area in Brazil
The integration of early warning and evacuation systems (EWES) with estimations for mitigating the loss of life in flood risk assessments marks an advancement towards developing robust emergency action plans for dam breaks. Through the simulation of diverse EWES scenarios, the impact of these system...
