{"product_id":"clumsy-floodplains-thomas-hartmann-9781138252028","title":"Clumsy Floodplains: Responsive Land Policy for Extreme Floods","description":"Extreme floods cause enormous damage in floodplains, which levees cannot prevent. It is hence vital for spatial planning to provide space for water retention in these areas. However, attempts to make the space for rivers to provide retention are generally not very successful. Taking an innovative, interdisciplinary approach, this book proposes a new concept - Large Areas for Temporary Emergency Retention (LATER) - in 'Clumsy Floodplains', as an alternative to levee-based protection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Hartmann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138252026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138252028\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/17\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.36d","brand":"Thomas Hartmann","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48449281261823,"sku":"9781138252028","price":77.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_01ff212f-a5c1-4835-8e62-1dcc8a54d64c.jpg?v=1777262683","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/clumsy-floodplains-thomas-hartmann-9781138252028","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
