Mesoscale Analysis of Flash Flood and Sediment Disasters

Xu, Weilin

Mountains cover 30% of the global land area. Floods and droughts account for 70% of all natural disasters, while flash floods alone make up 50% of all natural disasters. The losses caused by flash floods are among the two most significant types of loss caused by natural disasters in 105 countries in the world. Evidently, flash floods are the primary type of natural disaster across the globe. China is a mountainous country, with 70% of its land covered by mountains, far exceeding the global average level. Flash-flood prevention and control zones alone account for 48% of China’s total land area. Deaths from flash floods make up more than 70% of all the deaths caused by flooding and waterlogging.
