Resilience Assessment of Environmental Systems Under Flood Impacts National Taiwan University, Department of Civil Engineering, Taipei City, Taiwan In the context of global climate change and accelerating urbanization, the increasing frequency and severity of extreme rainfall and flooding events pose significant threats to both natural and human systems. This study aims to develop a Flood Resilience Index (FRI) to quantify and assess environmental resilience to flooding events. The study adopts the ISO 14090 framework for climate change risk assessment, establishing hazard, exposure, and sensitivity as the three key internal resilience indicators. We employ the 3Di hydrodynamic model to simulate flooding events and derive hazard indicators based on physical flood characteristics in the study area. Additionally, we incorporate habitat connectivity, calculated using Conefor Sensinode 2.2, as a critical factor within the exposure indicator to construct a comprehensive environmental Flood Resilience Index. Our proposed FRI framework introduces novel perspectives on environmental resilience assessment and provides decision-makers with practical strategies for enhancing adaptive management in flood-prone regions. | |
