Transboundary Floods: Reducing Risks Through Flood Management Summary

Transboundary Floods: Reducing Risks Through Flood Management by Jiri Marsalek

These edited proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop detail the ongoing search for better ways of protecting human life, land, property and the environment by improved flood management. Such flood management is difficult enough in river basins controlled by a single authority, and becomes even more challenging when dealing with transboundary floods, which may originate in one country or jurisdiction and propagate downstream to another country, or jurisdiction.
