Windstorms and flood risk management
Original language description
Floods are a constant threat to life and property. In the past 30 years, floods have been the most catastrophic natural disaster, affecting about 80 million people per year on average, or half of the total population affected by any natural disaster, causing economic damage. The number of people affected by riverine floods has been increasing in recent years. As increasing human activity downstream of rivers results in greater flood damage, the floods themselves, in turn, are also increasing in size andfrequency due to human activities in the upstream section of the river system. An increasing trend in extreme flood events can be observed in many countries not around the world but also within a Pardubice region. The Pardubice region is mostly flat country, so the windstorms and floods have increasing influence in comparison with all other disasters. In contribution will be discussed risk model containing two cores flood and high wind.Note:WOS ISBN 978-80-553-0363-5,actually ISBN 978-8
