Flooding: Are We Ignoring the Real Problem and Solution?

Joe Howe and Iain White

Regional Studies, 2001, vol. 35, issue 4, 368-370

Abstract: The damage of the recent storms has been well documented, but arguably, the reasons for the level of devastation and possible future solutions have not. This article critically examines both the areas accused of causing, or contributing, to the flooding and the solutions mentioned so far. It then suggests an alternative solution, which could be the answer to our recent problems.
