Draft flood risk model for Hebden Bridge
Participants in PhD student Shaun Maskrey’s second Flood Risk Modelling Workshop in July worked hard to draft networks showing how flood risks work in Hebden Bridge.

Shaun’s first workshop introduced the idea of using Bayesian networks to cope with uncertainties about how different variables affect flooding. After this bracing start, participants had worked in two groups to identify actions, or “interventions” that could reduce flood risk in Hebden Bridge.
Uncertainty and flood risk modelling
Shaun Maskrey’s 2nd Flood Modelling Workshop (which unfortunately I couldn’t attend) was about organising the variables that affect flooding in the Hebden Water catchment area into a cause and effect structure.

Hebden Bridge residents start to create model for reducing flood risks
Under the guidance of PhD geography student Shaun Maskrey and the Environment Agency’s John Woods, Hebden Bridge residents and organisations last week attended the first of five workshops, where together we’ll create a model for reducing flood risks in the Hebden Water catchment.
