Title

Urban coastal resilience - An assessment

Creator

Description

Increase in the urban area leads to the increase of impervious surfaces which is stressing urban watershed balance resulting in issues like urban flooding in cities around the world. Coastal urban areas experience the pressures of a higher water table which contributes to the rising urban flooding issues of the area. Urban resilience as a concept was developed in cities across the world which includes multiple strategies to cope with the impacts of climate change in cities by integrating engineering and ecological measures. Urban resilience for urban flooding aims to achieve the water balance of an area by balancing the increase of impervious surfaces using ample green and grey infrastructure. This paper aims to understand and evaluate the effectiveness of urban resilience measures implemented in coastal cities worldwide. 2023 Author(s).
