Can technology turn the tide on flooding?

Smart water systems are playing a crucial role in addressing intensified extreme weather events caused by climate change. In this episode, Zhou Fang spoke with Cao Ying, Professor of Water Resources and Hydropower from Sichuan Agricultural University, about how China’s innovative practices, such as forecasting, early warning and simulation are empowering its water management systems. We also take a closer look at how the country utilizes precision simulation systems for global climate change assessment and other high technologies to enhance its flood and drought prevention and control as well as raising water management efficiency.
