Les villes européennes, souvent installées le long de fleuves ou sur des rivages maritimes, s'inquiètent de leur vulnérabilité aux inondations, un risque accru aujourd'hui par les dérèglements climatiques, la pression démographique et la compétitivité urbaine. La mise en valeur récréative et environnementale de ces rives par des projets urbains, en cherchant à mieux articuler la ville avec la présence de l'eau, entraîne des débats sur l'acceptabilité de ces aménagements potentiellement inondables. Entre prise en compte du risque et attractivité, de nouvelles stratégies innovantes voient le jour qui, tout en renforçant les techniques de prévention traditionnelles, proposent des dispositifs urbains et des modes de vie mieux adaptés à la présence de l'eau sur le territoire. Les exemples étudiés dans cet ouvrage, que ce soit à Rotterdam ou Dordrecht aux Pays-Bas, Hambourg ou Mayence en Allemagne, Dunkerque, Lyon, Marseille ou Toulouse en France, tout comme le regard de certains experts sur des cas plus lointains, témoignent de cette ambivalence. Ils montrent une forte capacité d'innovation de la part de ces villes pour gérer les ressources liées à l'eau, optimiser des stratégies fonctionnelles et temporelles d'aménagement du territoire, imaginer des dispositifs architecturaux et techniques résistants à l'eau, et mettre en valeur ces nouveaux paysages.

This book examines many aspects of flood risk management in a comprehensive way. As risks depend on hazard and vulnerabilities, not only geophysical tools for flood forecasting and planning are presented, but also socio-economic problems of flood management are discussed. Starting with precipitation and meteorological tools to its forecasting, hydrological models are described in their applications for operational flood forecasts, considering model uncertainties and their interactions with hydraulic and groundwater models. With regard to flood risk planning, regionalization aspects and the options to utilize historic floods are discussed. New hydrological tools for flood risk assessments for dams and reservoirs are presented. Problems and options to quantify socio-economic risks and how to consider them in multi-criteria assessments of flood risk planning are discussed. This book contributes to the contemporary efforts to reduce flood risk at the European scale. Using many real-world examples, it is useful for scientists and practitioners at different levels and with different interests.

Perçues comme un moment exceptionnel et tragique de l’histoire des communautés anciennes, les catastrophes naturelles ne cessèrent, tout au long de l’Antiquité, de susciter l’étonnement, l’irraison et la peur. Elles furent l’objet de débats entre les défenseurs d’une opinion rationnelle, fondée sur la compréhension de l’harmonie et de la démesure du monde, et ceux qui, intrigués par la violence de tels phénomènes, en tenaient pour responsables les divinités. Il est néanmoins frappant de constater que les Grecs ne disposaient pas de mot pour désigner une catastrophe naturelle. L’enquête proposée ici repose donc sur une définition et un paradigme contemporains, l’étude des implications sociales qu’un aléa naturel impose aux sociétés. Loin de céder au fatalisme, les communautés surent s’adapter progressivement aux contraintes de leur environnement, tirèrent de ces expériences des enseignements au sujet des comportements à adopter et prirent des mesures efficaces afin de surmonter l’événement dévastateur. Les réactions populaires soulignent aussi la variété des attitudes face aux catastrophes : actes de bravoure ou de piété religieuse, évacuation des zones sinistrées, sollicitation des réseaux de voisinage, reconstruction des édifices ruinés. Ces réponses apportées au désastre révèlent les réalités quotidiennes dans les cités grecques. La catastrophe ne rompt ainsi pas le temps vécu, mais s’inscrit, au contraire, dans un processus historique de longue durée. Throughout Antiquity, natural disasters, seen as exceptional and tragic moments in the history of ancient communities, never ceased to evoke astonishment, irrationality and fear. They were the subject of debates between the defenders of rational opinions founded on an understanding of the world’s harmony and excess, and those who were puzzled by the violence of such phenomenas and held the gods responsible for them. Nevertheless, it is a surprise to discover that the Greeks did not have a word for ‘natural…
