ABSTRACT
Introduction
Climate change has been one of the most critical concerns in recent
decades. Researchers have claimed that global hydrological cycles are
expected to accelerate by climate change. Because of increased
precipitation and reduced evapotranspiration, river discharge will increase
on a global scale, which indicates an increase in the frequency of floods in
many regions of the globe. Risk of great floods increased during the 20th
century.
1. What is the current flood risk status of the city in terms of:

b. Costs imposed by flood
2. What are the reasons for a perceived increase in flood risk?
3. How does the city government attend to the risks given by climate
and flood?
4. What measures can be recommended for the current flood risks
and climate change effects?
