Abstract:
Urban water infrastructures are vital to cities, yet they are complex and vulnerable to both climate-related events—such as extreme precipitation, urban floods, droughts, heat waves, and cyclones—and other disruptive events like earthquakes, tidal effects, and tsunamis. Enhancing resilience in urban water systems—including drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater networks—is crucial to ensure the sustainability of these essential urban services and cities.
