adaptive urban development: protecting the cities' buildings and criticial instrastructure in a...
DESCRIPTION
This presentation elaborates on the strategies and measures that can be applied in cities to become flood resilient. The presentation was initially part of my Inaugural Lecture at Rotterdam University of Applied Science in November 2012, but I removed it due to time restrictions. Next to my work on floating cities I also work on transformation of land based cities into floodproof eco cities. This presentation contains results from teh EU FP7 project FloodProBe en the work we did for waterboards in the Netherlands.TRANSCRIPT

• Urbanization in delta areas:
– Is taking place at an unprecedented scale and speed
– Creates more frequent and increasingly severe flooding
– Is heavily constrained by the availability of energy, food, space, nutrients and other resources
Problem Outline

• aims to:
– Increase land availability rather than create land scarcity
– Decrease flood risk rather than create flood risk
– Produce energy, food, water and nutrients instead of only consuming resources and producing waste
– Have positive impact on ecosystems and create ecological habitat rather than degrade ecosystems
