Abstract
We are facing a climate emergency. As global temperatures rise and weather patterns become more intense and uncertain, a serious threat is the exposure of urban populations to catastrophic flood damage. Compounding the problem is the way cities are expanding with unregulated development and the creation of urban forms that expand hard impermeable surfaces, drastically changing the hydrological response of an area.
