Modeling and Mitigation Measures for Managing Extreme Hydrometeorological Events Under a Warming Climate

Modeling and Mitigation Measures for Managing Extreme Hydrometeorological Events Under a Warming Climate explores the most recent computational tools, modeling frameworks, and critical data analysis measures for managing extreme climate events. Extreme climate events-primarily floods and droughts-have had major consequences in terms of loss of life and property around the world.  Managing extreme occurrences, reducing their effects, and establishing adaptation strategies requires significant policy and planning improvements. This practical guide explores the latest research literature, recent advanced modeling approaches, and fundamental ideas and concepts to provide a variety of solutions for managing extreme events. Discusses the impacts of climate change on the management of water resources Provides flood and drought adaptation measures and strategies Covers the latest research carried out in the modeling of extreme hydrometeorological variables INDICE: 1.
