Frontiers in Flood Research Author / Editor: Ioulia Tchiguirinskaia, Khin Ni Ni Thein & Pierre Hubert Publication Number: 305 ISBN Number: 978-1901502-63-3 Year: 2006 Pages: 212 Price: £47.00 Description Contents Major floods are the most chronic and costly natural hazards in many countries. Despite new developments in flood related sciences and rigorous implementation of hazard-reduction policies, damages from flood disasters still continue to escalate. Losses resulting from floods extend far beyond economic hardship. Consequently, growing international attention focuses on innovative flood research and on integrated flood risk management. The contributors to this volume, international experts in current flood research, were invited to speak at the 2006 Kovacs Colloquium, a biannual event organized by the International Hydrological Programme (IHP) of UNESCO and IAHS. This book presents their papers and new information and insights into key issues of flood research. Scientific understanding of the flood phenomenon and of its potential impacts from the perspective of the engineering, operational, economic, social and ecological aspects of flood research, and with a focus on integrated flood risk management, is provided Contents for Frontiers in Flood Research Title Pages File Frontiers in Flood Research VIIIth Kovacs Colloquium Paris / Le point de la recherche sur les crues VIIe Colloque I.
