Floods are one of the world’s oldest and most damaging natural hazards, influencing human civilization from ancient river societies to modern urban environments. This book provides an accessible introduction to flood science, covering flood types, causes, impacts, risk assessment, forecasting, early warning systems, mitigation strategies, and climate change. It is designed to help students, professionals, policymakers, and general readers better understand flood management and build more resilient communities.
