Short summary

A flood management plan for the Grand River North West basin in Mauritius was developed to address the risks associated with climate change-induced flooding. Historical and projected climatic data were analyzed to discern trends in flood occurrence. A hydrological model was constructed to simulate the basin’s response to extreme flood events, and a Geographic Information System-based model was created for flood vulnerability map using exposure, susceptibility and resilience indicators.
