Climate learning scenarios for adaptation decision analyses: Review and classification by Vanessa Völz, Jochen Hinkel

“…Economic decision analysis is an important tool for developing cost-efficient adaptation pathways in sectors that involve costly adaptation options, such as flood risk management. Standard economic approaches, however, do not consider learning about future changes in climate variables even though a large literature on adaptive planning emphasises the key role of learning over time, because uncertainties about climate change are substantial. …”

State-of-the-Art Statistical Approaches for Estimating Flood Events by Muhammad Fawad, Felício Cassalho, Jingli Ren, Lu Chen, Ting Yan

“…Reliable quantile estimates of annual peak flow discharges (APFDs) are needed for the design and operation of major hydraulic infrastructures and for more general flood risk management and planning. In the present study, linear higher order-moments (LH-moments) and nonparametric kernel functions were applied to APFDs at 18 stream gauge stations in Punjab, Pakistan. …”

Mitigating infectious disease risks through non-stationary flood frequency analysis: a case study in Malaysia based on natural disaster reduction strategy by Nur Amalina Mat Jan Mat Jan, Muhammad Fadhil Marsani, Loshini Thiruchelvam, Nur Balqishanis Zainal Abidin, Ani Shabri, Sarah A'fifah Abdullah Sani

“…To enhance our comprehension of the health impacts of flooding and facilitate effective planning for mitigation strategies, it is necessary to explore the flood risk management. The variability present in hydrological records is an important and neglecting non-stationary patterns in flood data can lead to significant biases in estimating flood quantiles. …”
