Abstract EN
An integrated index system for urban rainstorm risk evaluation has been developed.
Meanwhile, an information diffusion method (IDM) and variable fuzzy sets (VFSs) were employed to evaluate the dangerousness, sensitivity, and vulnerability risk of urban rainstorm disasters, respectively.
Then, the comprehensive risk zoning map was drawn.
Finally, Jiangsu Province has been taken as a case study area.
Due to heavy rainfall in short-term and low rainstorm resistance ability, Wuxi, Changzhou, Nanjing, and Suzhou have higher dangerousness while Wuxi, Changzhou, and Nanjing have higher sensitivity.
And because of potential losses in urban rainstorm disaster, Wuxi and Suzhou have higher vulnerability than other cities.
The comprehensive risk zoning map showed that most cities of Jiangsu Province are at the moderate risk level, and the northwestern cities have lower risk level than the southern cities.
The results are consistent with the actual situation of Jiangsu Province, and the study can provide some decision-making references for the urban rainstorm management.
