Recent hydrometeorological extreme events have highlighted the
increased exposure and vulnerability of societies and the need to
strengthen the knowledge-base of related policies. Current research
is focused on improving forecasting, prediction and early warning
capabilities in order to improve the assessment of vulnerability
and risks linked to extreme climatic events. Hydrometeorological
Hazards: Interfacing science and policy is the first volume of a
series which will gather scientific and policy-related knowledge
related to climate-related extreme events. Invited authors are
internationally recognized experts in their respective fields. This
volume reflects the most recent advances in science and policy
within this field and takes a multidisciplinary approach. The book
provides the reader with a state-of-the art account on flash
floods, droughts, storms, and a comprehensive discussion focused on
the cost of natural hazards, resilience and adaptation. This book
will be an invaluable reference for advanced undergraduates taking
courses with a focus on natural hazards including climate-related
extreme events. The book will also be of interest to postgraduates,
researchers and policy makers in this field looking for an overview
of the subject.
