Article in Science Advances provides new insights about human resettlement after flooding

By using satellite data about nighttime light, CNDSers Johanna Mård and Giuliano Di Baldassarre, together with Maurizio Mazzoleni, were able to identify patterns and reveal the relationship between long-term changes in human proximity to rivers in relation to flooding patterns. This article explores and discusses the nexus between natural hazards and vulnerability.
