Flash flood-risk areas zoning using integration of decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory, GIS-based analytic network process and satellite-derived information

Researchers developed a GIS-based decision-making model combining multiple criteria — including topography, vegetation, and soil type — to map flash flood risk zones in Golestan province, Iran, identifying 68 villages and roughly 83,595 residents at elevated risk. The framework provides local authorities with a practical tool for flood disaster planning and risk reduction.

Multi-criteria analysis of the possibility of retrofitting the system of rainwater drainage from subsidence basins in a liquidated mine

Researchers applied multi-criteria analysis to evaluate options for retrofitting rainwater drainage systems in subsidence basins left by liquidated coal mines in Poland. The study examined shifts in hydrogeological conditions and terrain morphology resulting from decades of hard coal extraction to identify viable water management solutions for post-mining landscapes.

Application of pressure–state–response approach for developing criteria and indicators of ecological health assessment of wetlands: a multi-temporal study in Ichhamati floodplains, India

Researchers developed and tested a comprehensive 105-indicator framework for assessing the ecological health of tropical floodplain wetlands in eastern India, applying it across seven sites over multiple years. The results showed that agriculture-dominated wetlands were the most degraded, while fishing-dominated wetlands fared better, offering a replicable tool for wetland management in similar regions.
