Eike Hamers

Eike Hamers’ project focuses on large-scale flood models and their ability to interact with land use models to assess future risk. This includes the evaluation of existing flood models on their suitability as large-scale model, adapting such a model and creating the computational framework to integrate the model into a land use one.

This research will help decision makers understand flood risk at a community scale and as part of a greater picture and assess the effectiveness of
different hazard risk reduction portfolios.
