Flood-Risk Research Initiative
Flood-Risk Research Initiative
Description: Flood-Risk affects All of Us: Floods not only cause great distress to the affected communities, but also result in high costs. For this reason, the Mobiliar Lab for Natural Risks at the University of Bern launched a research initiative entitled “Flood-Risk Research Initiative – From Theory to Practice”. The goal is to offer a sound basis and innovative tools (Flood Damage Simulator, Flood Damage Potential, Flood Image Memory and Risk Dynamics) for the sustainable management of flood risks.
