Quantifying Medium-Sized City Flood Vulnerability Due to Climate Change Using Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Techniques: Case of Republic of Korea
This study proposed a systematic approach to quantifying city flood vulnerability (CFV) related to climate change using several multi-criteria decision-making methods in medium-sized cities and investigated the sources of uncertainty in this assessment. In addition, this study was intended to explore ways for quantifying flood vulnerability and mitigating the impact of data uncertainty on flood vulnerability through multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods. The MCDM method was applied as a representative method to quantify flood vulnerability, which considers regional priorities. This study used the weighted summation method, TOPSIS, and VIKOR to calculate all CFVs for medium-sized cities. Furthermore, fuzzy- and grey-TOPSIS were included to account for the uncertainty inherent in the MCDM methods, such as the usage of average values and varying weighting values for all CFV indicators across stakeholders. This study incorporated expert surveys and the entropy approach to derive subjective and objective weights for all conceivable indicators. As a result, we looked at the proposed grey-TOPSIS technique, which can minimize the uncertainty. Finally, grey-TOPSIS can notably provide robust and sustainable prioritizing since it actively reflects the views of multiple stakeholders and takes uncertainty in the data into account.
