Abstract

Urban flooding is one of the most pressing challenges faced by emerging cities around the world. Rapid urbanization, coupled with inadequate infrastructure planning, often exacerbates the natural flood response, leading to devastating consequences. This paper presents a novel distributed coupled model to assess the impact of urban development on rainfall-runoff flooding in newly urbanized areas. The model integrates hydrological and hydraulic processes, accounting for both natural and anthropogenic factors that influence flood dynamics. Through a case study of a rapidly urbanizing city, we demonstrate the efficacy of this model in simulating flooding responses, identifying key risk areas, and providing actionable insights for flood management in emerging urban environments. The findings underscore the importance of incorporating advanced modeling techniques in urban planning to mitigate flooding risks and enhance urban resilience.
