Assessment of flood risk in Mediterranean catchments: An approach based on Bayesian Networks

National and international technical reports have demonstrated the increase of extreme event occurrences which becomes more dangerous in coastal areas due to their higher population density. In Spain, flood and storm events are the main reasons for compensation according to the National Insurance Co...
