Flood damage, vulnerability and risk perception: challenges for flood damage research
| El estado actual de la técnica en el análisis de los daños por inundaciones se centra principalmente en la evaluación económica de los efectos tangibles de las inundaciones. Se afirma en este documento de debate que se descuidan importantes aspectos económicos, sociales y ecológicos de las vulnerabilidades relacionadas con las inundaciones. Es un reto para la investigación sobre inundaciones para desarrollar una perspectiva más amplia para la evaluación de los daños por inundaciones. | |
