Mapping the capacity of concave green land in mitigating urban pluvial floods and its beneficiaries
Sustainable Cities and Society(2019)
Abstract
•Many cities in China suffer from severe pluvial flooding.•We performed integrated urban pluvial flood simulations and scenario analysis.•Concave green land (CGL) mitigates inundation areas by 26.1–82.4%.•CGL reduces the exposed population by 0.40–1.04 million persons.•CGL reduces population exposure to floods and increases community resilience.
