Übersetzung für "Hochwassergefahr" in Englisch

In short, flood risks are increasing as a consequence of unsustainable activity.

Moreover, this risk will probably increase during the coming decades.

Only on the completion of the Rappbode Dam in 1959 could the risk of flooding be eliminated.

Mention should also be made of the danger of flooding during the snow melts in summer and thunderstorms.

What happens when the danger of flooding has passed?

An unchanged risk of floods with seasonal fluctuations persists on the rivers of Mulde and Ammer.

This means also an increase in the risk of flooding.

For this reason strategies for the handling of threats emerging from flooding danger are needed.

Overloading sewer systems, water treatment plants and receiving waters increases the risk of flooding.

The risk of flooding in the Yellow River is great.

The central group reminds viewers of danger of flooding with the

There is no high water danger, because the real estate lies raised.

The accumulated debris also affects rivers and increases the risk of flooding.

In North-Eastern Europe, the risk of flooding is at its highest in spring because of snow melt.

This would look at particular criteria such as flooding and risks to operation and safety, earthquakes and knowledge gained in Japan, cooling systems and their functioning and the subject of power supply and backup power in a staggered configuration, so that more cooling can be maintained by means of power and backup power units even where there is a risk of earthquakes and flooding.

It shows that, faced with the serious challenge of preparing Europe for the risks of possibly increased flooding, agreements can be reached relatively rapidly.

It is even more difficult to link all strategies and financial mechanisms, particularly those falling under the cohesion policy, which aims to eliminate or minimise the threats of flooding by way of rational policy measures.

In the 1920s and 1960s, the flow of the Nidda was regulated to reduce the risk of floods.

Due to frequent flooding of Ohio University's campus, the Army Corps of Engineers re-channelized a section of the Hocking River in Athens during the late 1960s and early 1970s.

As a result it was proposed the new railway would run from Amsterdam via Amersfoort, Isselburg, Hamminkeln, Wesel and Duisburg to Cologne, avoiding large cities such as Utrecht and Arnhem in order to minimise the risk of floods disrupting the line.

Some scientists argue that climate change is to blame, while others claim that Europe is more exposed and vulnerable to an increased flood risk.

In the last decade, the EU has launched around 50 research projects in this field, with a total budget of €58 million, in areas such as flood risk assessment, flood hazard and risk mapping, flood forecasting and preventative land-use planning.

As in most scientific disciplines, there are numerous interconnected and multi-dimensional factors at play, for instance weather, climate, hydrology, land-use, structural flood defence measures, flood risk awareness and preparedness, capabilities for flood management, warning and information.

Based on the SPHERE database, the design of high-risk structures, such as dams, bridges and power plants, can be improved due to better calculation of flood risks.

The risk of flooding in specific areas can then be forecast, although the accuracy of the flood forecast depends on that of the weather data.

Lingenfeld lies 104 meters higher than the other communities close to the Rhine, so danger of flooding can be almost entirely excluded.
