Abstract:Extreme weather events, such as flooding, are expected to become more severe due to climate change. These impacts are connected to impacts on human systems including economic, social, and political crises. Adding to the challenge, populations have concurrently settled in risky areas that were previously thought to have low, or no, exposure. As such, it is important to understand how population exposure to flooding may change over time. Here, we build on existing research to project future populations with thei… Show more
