摘要：The typhoon region is urbanizing rapidly with the increasing trend of population and economy. Fast urban development has also brought many potential troubles, and urban flooding is one of the most serious. Many aspects of urban areas are vulnerable to flood disasters and climate change. How to minimize losses caused by urban floods and harmonize relationship between floods and socio-economic development has been a significant problem that governments and international organizations work on. In recent years, risk management ideas have been introduced into flood management in the Typhoon Committee Area (TCA). This paper presents a brief review of urban flood issues and flood management in the TCA, and identifies good practices and research progress of urban flood risk management from the model cities study. In addition, some ideas about the improvement of urban flood risk management are also discussed in the paper.
