But we have to avoid making urbanisation similar to increased flooding and agriculture ideal for water resource management. There’s a menu of possibilities for managing flood risks in urban areas, on catchment scale, neighbourhood scale and for individual buildings (Shaw, Colley, and Connell 2007; EEA 2012c). Intensive agricultural practices can influence hydro-morphology of rivers, and lead to increased water use and pollution of groundwater when fertilisers and pesticides wash out if water is not used efficient (EEA 2012b).
