This course explains fundamental concepts in flood risk management, summarizes the history of flood management in California, the US, and globally, and tracks the development of state- of-the art approaches to assessing flood risk, equity implications, and utilizing nature-based solutions to sustainably manage floods. The course is offered at both the upper-division undergraduate (LA119) and graduate (LA229) levels. Lectures are the same for both undergrad and grad courses, but there are separate discussion sections and requirements.
