ICE Bristol City Club hosts an informal evening of social learning for the local professional engineering community. This event will provide the opportunity for guests to join three technical knowledge hubs, led by experts from Bristol-born company, Fathom, to explore the use of data to increase efficiency in flood risk modelling and management, and better understand flood risk, both today and up to 2100, under multiple climate scenarios
The hubs will cover:
- Climate change with Dr Natalie Lord, senior climate scientist to explore the impacts future changes in climate might have on flood risk and how climate models can be used to assess future flood risk.
- Inland flood modelling with Anthony Cooper, hydraulic model developer to look at building hydraulic models on national and global scales and how to rapidly assess flood impacts.
- Coastal flooding with Tom Collings, coastal model developer to discuss characterising coastal flood risk using historical records, modelling tropical cyclone storm surges and utilising coastal flood maps for risk assessment.
Refreshments will be provided courtesy of Fathom.
