A Guide to Modelling Flooding in Large
Lowland Basins
thesis of a multi-scale modelling framework to
support integrated flood risk management, and
utilization of the results obtained to support im-
proved decision-making at all stages in the design
of flood risk management strategies.
The key steps recommended when investigat-
ing flood risk in large, lowland basins are set out
below and illustrated in Figure 22.13:
The final section of this chapter presents guidance
on modelling flooding in large, lowland basins
based on integrating the concepts and practical
experience presented thus far. This includes de-
velopment of conceptual flood risk models, syn-
