Flood risk and Urban development in Belize City, Belize
This case study examines flood risk and urban development in Belize City, Belize, using a Weather Generator (WG) tool to project future rainfall and temperature trends. The analysis highlights a projected increase in temperature and a shift in rainfall patterns, with decreased precipitation in June, July, and August, but increased intensity and variability in October and November. These changes, combined with the city's flat topography and poor drainage infrastructure, are expected to heighten the risk of severe flooding and associated health hazards.
