Andrew Wiens presents case study on the City of Surrey’s Climate Change Rainfall Adaptation Strategy

City of Surrey’s Climate Change Rainfall Adaptation Strategy

Extreme rainfall and the anticipated effects of climate change pose a significant urban flood risk. Recently, the City of Surrey engaged Associated Engineering to develop numerical models for evaluating flooding from rainfall events and for estimating economic losses due to flooding. This study also examined the anticipated changes to rainfall patterns as a result of climate change and evaluated several potential methods for mitigating flood damage to private property.
