DETERMINING TROPICAL CYCLONE INLAND FLOODING LOSS ON A LARGE SCALE THROUGH A NEW FLOOD PEAK RATIO-BASED METHODOLOGY

Determining tropical cyclone inland flooding loss on a large scale through a new flood peak ratio-based methodology

In recent years, the United States has been severely affected by numerous tropical cyclones (TCs) which have caused massive damages.While media screenprotector attention mainly focuses on coastal losses from storm surge, these TCs have inflicted significant devastation inland as well.Yet, little is known about the relationship between TC-related in
