The Anthropocene, marked by substantial human impact, has seen intensified hydrological hazards like floods and droughts due to environmental changes. Today, understanding and predicting these hazards is vital for effective water resource management and risk mitigation. In my lecture, I’ll cover state-of-the-art emergency management for these challenges and explore future advances in early warning systems essential for first responders, emphasizing the key factors influencing hazard predictability and decision-making improvements.
