The impact of urbanization on flood in Klang Valley / Nur Nasuhah Abdullah

Changes in land use associated with urban development affect flooding in many ways. Removing vegetation and soil, grading the land surface, and constructing drainage networks increase runoff to streams from rainfall and snowmelt. Flash foods are common phenomena in the capital city of Malaysia. Ever...
