10 . Read the passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words/ phrases are given in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.

Scientists have found irrefutableevidence that Mars once had the ingredients for life. This confirmation comes seven months after NASA's rover Curiosity landed on Mars.

Analysis of powdered samples drilled out from inside an ancient and once water-soaked rock at the rover's Gale Crater landing site shows clays, sulphates and other minerals that are all key to life, scientists told reporters atNASA headquarters in Washington on March 12. The water that once flowed through the area known as Yellowknife Bay, was likely drinkable, said Curiosity's lead scientist John Grotzinger, who is with the CaliforniaInstitute of Technology.

The analysis stopped short of a confirmation of organics, which are key to most Earth-like life. But with 17 months left in the rover's primary mission, scientists said they expect to delve further into that question. Scienceoperations currently are suspended because of a computer glitch, which is expected to be resolved shortly. Whether or not Mars has or ever had life, it should have at one time at least had organic compounds delivered to its surface by organic-rich comets and asteroids. Finding places where the organics could have been preserved, however, is a much trickier prospect than finding the environmental niches and chemistry needed to supportlife, scientists said.

In May, following a one-month interruption of radio communication caused by the positions of Earth and Mars, scientists plan to drill a second hole into the Gale Crater rock to look for organic compounds.

'If there was organic material there, it could have beenpreserved,' said David Blake, principal investigator for Curiosity's Chemistry and Mineralogy, or CheMin, experiment.

A lack of organics, however, would not rule out the Yellowknife Bay site as suitable for life, scientists added.'You don't have to have carbon present in a geological environment that's habitable in order to have microbial metabolism occur,' Grotzinger said. Some micro-organisms on Earth, for example, can feed on inorganic compounds, such as what are found inside rocks. 'There does need to be sources of carbon somewhere, but if it's just $CO^ 2$ , you can have chemoautotrophic organic compounds based on that carbon,' Grozinger said. Analysis shows the Gale Crater rock contains carbon dioxide, in addition to hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulphur and nitrogen Carbon dioxide provides a key ingredient in the building blocks for life, all of which have now been found in the Mars rock sample, Grotzinger said.

The \$2.5-billion, nuclear-powered Curiosity rover landed inside the giant Gale Crater impact basin, located near the Martian equator, on August 6 for a two-year mission. Scientists were drawn to the area because of a five-km mountain of sediment, called Mount Sharp, rising from the crater floor.

But shortly after the rover's landing, the team decided to first explore the Yellowknife Bay area, located in the opposite direction from Mount Sharp.

Observations from Mars orbiters showed three different types of terrain coming together in Yellowknife Bay, plus a low elevation, all hints that water could have once flowed and pooled on the surface.
Which of the following is not necessarily correct in the context of the passage?
 On the basis of evidence found on Mars scientists have confirmed that ingredients for life once existed on Mars NASA's rover Curiosity landed on Mars near Gale Crater Drinkable water flowed through Yellowknife Bay once Scientists are not sure if organic compounds existed on Mars. None of these

## anonymous one year ago if y varies directly as x and y=49 when x=7, what is the value of y when x=3? a. 7 b. 9 c. 49 d. 21

1. SolomonZelman

$$\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle y=\color{orangered}{\rm k} x}$$ this above, is the equation of a direct variation. In this equation x and y are directly proportional to y, so that you can multiply x by some constant k and obtain y. (this perfect proportion is called direct variation) it is a line with a slope k that goes through the origin.

2. SolomonZelman

If you are given that that y=49 when x=7 then you can go ahead and find the constant k. plug in 49 for y and 7 for k, into the $$\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle y=\color{orangered}{\rm k} x}$$

3. SolomonZelman

and then after plugging in solve for k

4. SolomonZelman

When you find the k, you can figure out the value of y when x=3. How? you can plug in the value of k you just found, and plug 3 instead of x. (again u r plugging into $$\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle y=\color{orangered}{\rm k} x}$$ )

# On some binomial B ( m ) $B^{(m)}$ -difference sequence spaces

On some binomial B ( m ) $B^{(m)}$ -difference sequence spaces In this paper, we introduce the binomial sequence spaces b 0 a , b ( B ( m ) ) $b^{a,b}_{0}(B^{(m)})$ , b c a , b ( B ( m ) ) $b^{a,b}_{c}(B^{(m)})$ and b ∞ a , b ( B ( m ) ) $b^{a,b}_{\infty}(B^{(m)})$ by combining the binomial transformation and difference operator. We prove the BK-property and some inclusion relations. Furthermore, we obtain Schauder bases and compute the α-, β- and γ-duals of these sequence spaces. Finally, we characterize matrix transformations on the sequence space b c a , b ( B ( m ) ) $b_{c}^{a,b}(B^{(m)})$ . http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Inequalities and Applications Springer Journals

1. ## N(H)/C(H) question

Assume G is a group of order 48. If there is only one 3-Sylow subgroup, K, of G, what are the possible orders for C(K)? Does this guarantee G has an element of order 6? Why or why not.
Here is what I have for my answer:
Since |G|=48=2^4*3. 1 Sylow 3 subgroup means that this subgroup is normal in G, this group order is 3. Since K is a subgroup of C(K) and C(K) is a subgroup of G, by lagrange theroem the possible orders for C(K) are 3,6,12,24,48. Since K is normal in G, then N(K)=G, and |N(K)|=48. So |N(K)/C(K)| and the possible orders of C(K) are 3,6,12,24, and 48.
G is not guaranteed an element of order 6 because 6 is not a prime number that divides the order of G.
Is this right? Any comments would be great!

What is C(K) for you? The center of the subgroup K or the centralizer in G of K?

Ok then: we know that $\displaystyle N(K)/C(K)\cong S\leq Aut(K)$ , and since $\displaystyle |Aut(K)|=2$ that doesn't leave many options, does it?
So it must be $\displaystyle \frac{48}{|C(K)|}=|N(K)/C(K)|\in\{1,2\}\Longrightarrow |C(K)|=24,\,48$.

In both cases this means that if $\displaystyle K=<k>$ then there is an element $\displaystyle x\in G$ of order 2 s.t. $\displaystyle xk=kx$ , and then $\displaystyle ord(xk)=ord(x)ord(k)=6$ ...

# zbMATH — the first resource for mathematics

Limits of random trees. (English) Zbl 1299.05289
There has been much recent interest in limit objects for sequences of graphs, with the case of sparse graphs tending to be more technically problematic than the dense cases. In the paper under review, the author considers the case where an $$n$$-vertex tree $$T_{n}$$ is chosen at random, with any particular $$n$$-vertex tree $$T$$ with degrees $$(d_{i})$$ having probability $\mathbb{P}(T_{n}=T) =\frac{\prod_{i=1}^{n} d_{i}!}{(n-2)!{3n-3\choose n-2}}$ (the normalising constant is justified in the paper). The author shows that this sequence is convergent and describes the limit object.
The proofs proceed by estimating the expected maximum degree of a tree from this model – it is about $$\log_{3}(n)$$ – and some detailed estimates on the density of various labelled subgraphs. The approach taken is different from that in some earlier articles on the topic.

In one application I’m building, I had this problem.

Using Express, I can import body-parser to parse the body as JSON:

import bodyParser from 'body-parser'

app.use(bodyParser.json())

However to integrate with the Stripe payments API I had the need to expose the raw body (not parsed) into an endpoint, and I couldn’t figure out how to do it, while still parsing the body as JSON.

This did the trick:

app.use(bodyParser.json({
verify: (req, res, buf) => {
req.rawBody = buf
}
}))

Now the raw body is available on req.rawBody and the JSON parsed data is available on req.body.

From the body-parser GitHub I found that this doubles the RAM usage for every request, but since I need this functionality, I have no other way.

Except perhaps creating a different server just for the Stripe webhook I wanted to handle.

## Abstract

In the context of climate change, the impact of extreme precipitation and its chain effects has intensified in the southeastern coastal region of China, posing a serious threat to the socioeconomic development in the region. This study took tropical cyclones–extreme precipitation–flash floods as an example to carry out a risk assessment of flash floods under climate change in the Yantanxi River Basin, southeastern China. To obtain the flash flood inundation characteristics through hydrologic–hydrodynamic modeling, the study combined representative concentration pathway (RCP) and shared socioeconomic pathway (SSP) scenarios to examine the change of flash flood risk and used the geographical detector to explore the driving factors behind the change. The results show that flash flood risk in the Yantanxi River Basin will significantly increase, and that socioeconomic factors and precipitation are the main driving forces. Under the RCP4.5-SSP2 and RCP8.5-SSP5 scenarios, the risk of flash floods is expected to increase by 88.79% and 95.57%, respectively. The main drivers in the case study area are GDP density (q = 0.85), process rainfall (q = 0.74), asset density (q = 0.68), and population density (q = 0.67). The study highlights the influence of socioeconomic factors on the change of flash flood disaster risk in small river basins. Our findings also provide a reference for regional planning and construction of flood control facilities in flash flood-prone areas, which may help to reduce the risk of flash floods.

## 1 Introduction

Flood disasters induced by extreme precipitation events have become a major challenge to regional security and development. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a special report about managing the risks of extreme events and disasters in 2012, which indicates that the evolution of extreme disaster events such as floods has become an important issue to be addressed in climate change impact and adaptation research (Lavell et al. 2012; Fang et al. 2014). Climate change has increased the frequency and intensity of extreme precipitation events (Su et al. 2015; Luo et al. 2016). Hourly precipitation data from 1215 stations in China show that the precipitation intensity and maximum hourly precipitation increased by 0.7–1.1% and 0.9–2.8% on average per decade, respectively, during 1961−2012, mainly in central China and southeastern coastal areas (Jian et al. 2020). Extreme precipitation events increase the risk of flood disasters (Su et al. 2015; Luo et al. 2016). With the rapid socioeconomic development in recent decades, about USD 70.6 billion in economic damages and 4354 casualties were caused by flooding in China’s coastal region during 1989−2014 (Fang et al. 2020). Therefore, understanding the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of flood disasters and carrying out the risk assessment of flood disasters in coastal areas in the context of climate change is important for the sustainable development of the region.
Floods are classified as riverine floods, coastal floods, and flash floods depending on the area where the flood disaster occurs (Griffiths et al. 2019). Flash floods have a major impact in China (Zhang et al. 2006; Liu et al. 2018). They have been distributed in 2058 counties, with a distribution area of 4.87 million km2, and flash flood disasters have affected a population of 570 million people before 2016, according to the State Flood Control and Drought Relief Office of China (Cui and Zou 2016).
The main methods of flood risk assessment include evaluation index and numerical model simulation. Common numerical simulation models include SWAT, CaMa-Flood, and FLO-2D (Hurkmans et al. 2010). Hirabayashi et al. (2013) used the multiple General Circulation Models (GCMs) of CMIP5 coupled with the CaMa-Flood model to simulate the global 100a flood inundation characteristics, and they estimated that the population exposed to flood disasters will increase tenfold by the end of the 21st century. In the existing studies, flood risk assessment was mainly conducted for large- or medium-sized basins. One of the main reasons for the lack of flash flood risk assessment in small basins under climate change is the coarse accuracy of climate models in simulating rainfall conditions, which could not consider factors such as tropical cyclones (TCs), topography, and regional circulation that cause extreme rainfall within small areas (Lafon et al. 2013).
Flood damage assessment is mostly conducted by considering direct economic damage (Armal et al. 2020). Quantitative assessment of flood disaster risk is usually based on a damage model, which combines the characteristics of the inundation depth, inundation extent, flow velocity, or other hazard factors of flood events with socioeconomic elements (Dutta et al. 2003; Merz et al. 2010). But the existing flash flood risk assessments often focus on the characteristics of the hazard, with less attention paid to the joint effect of climate change and socioeconomic changes on the risk drivers of flash floods (Liu et al. 2018).
In this study, we conducted a quantitative assessment of flash flood disaster risks. The study took the tropical cyclones–extreme precipitation–flash floods chain effects as an example, and had two main objectives. The first was to obtain the changes of flash flood risk under climate change, and the second was to explore the driving factors behind the changes of flash flood risk. We selected the Yantanxi River Basin in Yongjia County, Zhejiang Province as the study area, which is frequently affected by flash floods. We first constructed an index system of flash flood risk assessment and used the hydrologic-hydrodynamic model to determine the inundation characteristics with the same probability of flash flood disaster events. Second, we combined the result of the hazard identification with the regional asset value, and assessed the flash flood risk through the regional damage model considering climate change. Third, the geographical detector model was used to explore the driving factors of the flash flood disaster risk changes.

## 2 Data and Methods

In this section, first, the characteristics of the main geographical elements in the study area are described. Second, we describe the multi-source data used in this study. Finally, the risk assessment method of flash flood is described in detail.

### 2.1 Study Area

Yongjia County is in Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province (Fig. 1), with a land area of 2677 km2. Yongjia is located on the north bank of the lower reaches of the Oujiang River, and four mountainous rivers, including the Nanxi River, are distributed in the region. The area of rivers and lakes is 112.7 km2, accounting for 4.2% of the county’s area, and the landforms include mountains, hills, and plains, of which hills and mountains account for 85.6% of the county area. Yongjia is in the subtropical monsoon climate zone with a warm and humid climate. From 1949 to 2000, the county was affected by 60 tropical cyclones, accounting for approximately 35% of the total TCs that affected Zhejiang Province. During this time period, 29 TCs caused flood disasters in Yongjia, and 71% of the flash flood disaster events were caused by tropical cyclone-induced extreme precipitation (Dai 2006; Liao 2009). Yongjia County has a history of more than 1,800 years, with rich natural and ecological resources. The county received 15.57 million tourists and achieved tourism revenues of CNY 17.97 billion1 in 2019, which accounted for 40% of the county-level revenues (Yongjia County Bureau of Statistics 2020). The regional tourism resources and tourists are exposed to the risk of flash floods (Liao 2011).
As a major upstream tributary of the Nanxi River, the Yantanxi River is originated in the northwest of the Dashijian Mountain (elevation of the highest peak is 1240 m), with a total length of 131.89 km. In the upstream tributaries of the Nanxi River, the Shizhu hydrological station manages the hydrological information. The Yantanxi River Basin is in the northern part of Yongjia County (120°24′E−120°48′E and 28°22′N−28°36′N). The total watershed area is 687.62 km2 (Fig. 1) and covers four administrative units in Yantan Town with a total population of 20 thousand according to the 2017 census. The area is famous for the dense distribution of ancient villages and the Sihai Mountain Forest Park. In July 2005, Super Typhoon Haitang made landfall in Wenzhou, and the Yantanxi River Basin experienced heavy rainfall from 0:00 on 19 July to 11:00 on 20 July. During the impact period, the flood level reached 8.55 m in Yongjia urban area, and the main roads were washed out, with direct economic damage amounting to CNY 3.48 billion (in 2019 prices), and the tropical cyclone-induced rainfall further triggered flash floods in the northern mountainous areas, including the Yantanxi River Basin (Liao 2009). The natural resources and socioeconomic elements of the Yantanxi River Basin are frequently exposed to flash floods, making it necessary to develop a study of the flash flood risk changes within the area.

### 2.2 Data

The data used in this study include meteorological data (the observed rainfall, tropical cyclone track, and climate model data), geographic information data (DEM, soil type, and land use), and socioeconomic data (GDP, population, and asset values).

#### 2.2.1 Meteorological Data

Tropical cyclone track data were retrieved from the Shanghai Typhoon Institute of the China Meteorological Administration (CMA-STI) tropical cyclone best track dataset.2 The dataset includes the typhoon time; the typhoon center latitude and longitude, minimum pressure, and maximum wind speed; and the typhoon scale elements (Ying et al. 2014).
The observed rainfall data were derived from the hourly precipitation dataset of the ground climate data also provided by the CMA. There are six meteorological stations that contribute the rainfall data in the study area—Jinyun, Yueqing, Linhai, Qingtian, Yongjia, and Xianju. The weight of each meteorological station’s rainfall contribution to the rainfall of the study area is calculated by the ratio of the area between the river basin and the Thiessen polygon (Fig. 1). The calculation result shows that Yongjia station has the largest contribution to the regional rainfall. The observed rainfall data from 1971–2019 were selected for each station to ensure the same rainfall time series length.
Climate model data were obtained from the NASA Earth Exchange Global Daily Downscaled Projections (NEX-GDDP) high-resolution dataset released in 2015.3 This dataset downscales the 21 climate models participating in CMIP 5 by bias correction, including precipitation and temperature, with a spatial resolution of 0.25° × 0.25° and a temporal resolution of daily (Chen et al. 2017). The two representative concentration pathways (RCPs) were RCP4.5 and RCP8.5. The RCP4.5 scenario assumes a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions with government intervention as a medium concentration emission scenario that is similar to the current climate change scenario (Moss et al. 2010; Hurtt et al. 2011). The RCP8.5 scenario is without government intervention and with a predominantly fossil fuel energy source, which is a high concentration emission scenario. The use of RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios for flash flood risk assessment therefore allows us to visualize changes in flash flood risk at current levels of climate change and under extreme changes. The BCC-CSM1.1 data, which exhibit a better rainfall simulation capability in China, were selected from the dataset to define future rainfall scenarios of the study area (Chen 2013; Jiang et al. 2015). For this research, we retrieved both historical rainfall data (1950–2005) and forecast rainfall data (2052–2100) from the dataset.

#### 2.2.2 Geographic Information Data

These data were mainly used for flash flood inundation simulation. A digital elevation model (DEM) was obtained from the Geospatial Data Cloud constructed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences,4 with a spatial resolution of 30 m. The land use data are based on the Landsat 8 interpretation of the land surface characteristics of China in 2018, with a spatial resolution of 30 m, and were derived from the Resource and Environment Science and Data Center of China.5 Soil type distribution data were obtained from the Harmonized World Soil Database (HWSD) published by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and available at the National Cryosphere Desert Data Center of China.6

#### 2.2.3 Socioeconomic Data

The socioeconomic data analyzed in this study were derived from the Wenzhou Statistical Yearbook (Wenzhou Municipal Bureau of Statistics 2019), including population and GDP data for 2005–2019. Disaster data were mainly acquired from the Meteorological Disaster Yearbook, Zhejiang Volume (Wen et al. 2006) and the Records of Water Conservancy in Yongjia (Dai 2006), and were used to verify the impact of tropical cyclones in the study area.
The asset value data were retrieved from previous studies. Wu et al. (2014) estimated the asset values of 344 prefecture-level cities in China with the perpetual inventory method. In addition, the researchers combined geographic information data such as lights, roads, and population density to achieve a spatialized dataset of county-level assets and updated this dataset based on 2019 prices (Wu et al. 2017; Wu et al. 2018).
The IPCC developed the shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs) in 2011. To bring the dataset more in line with Chinese socioeconomic characteristics, Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology (NUIST) corrected the datasets based on parametric methods, with a spatial resolution of 0.5° × 0.5°.7 The University used 2010 as the base year and data on key factors such as fertility, mortality, migration rate of the current population, capital stock of the economy, labor force participation rate, and total factor productivity in China were accumulated and form the population and GDP dataset before 2100. This dataset provides data support for studies related to climate change risks at regional and river basin scales, mainly in the areas of energy, water resources, and agriculture (Jiang et al. 2018; Huang et al. 2019). This study used the corrected dataset and combined the RCP and SSP scenarios (RCP4.5-SSP2, RCP8.5-SSP5) to develop the assessment of the flash flood risk changes in the study area.

### 2.3 Methods

Based on the regional disaster system theory, the flash flood risk refers to the possible damage in regional socioeconomic systems caused by flood disaster events triggered by heavy precipitation that occurs in mountainous and hilly and river valley areas (Zhang et al. 2006; Shi 2016). The flash flood risk can be expressed as (Asian Disaster Reduction Center 2005):
$$Risk = \, \left( {Hazard,Exposure,Vulnerability} \right)$$
(1)
In assessing the flash flood risk, the first step is to analyze the intensity and probability of historical flash flood events to derive the characteristics of flash flood inundation in a case area (Hazard). The second step is to obtain the asset value in areas affected by flash floods (Exposure). The third step is to combine the survey of the damage status caused by historical flood disaster events and obtain the economic damage rate in the region (Vulnerability). Finally, the economic damage under a certain probability of occurrence is determined, and the Risk indicates the variation of economic damage under different scenarios considering the capacity of disaster prevention.

#### 2.3.1 Constructing an Indicator System for Flash Flood Risk Assessment

Considering the characteristics of flash flood hazards, regional exposure, and reference to existing studies (Hu et al. 2018; Liu et al. 2018; Ye et al. 2019; Shi et al. 2020), an indicator system of flash flood risk assessment was constructed in this study (Table 1). We chose eight indicators—process rainfall (PR), impact force (IF), flow velocity (FV), population density (PD), GDP density (GD), asset density (AD), per capita GDP (PG), and per capita asset value (PA)—to describe the hazard, exposure, and capacity of disaster prevention for the risk assessment of flash flood disasters.

#### 2.3.2 Flash Flood Hazard Analysis

##### 2.3.2.1 Regional Extreme Rainfall Characteristics
Extreme rainfall events often occur along the southeastern coast of China due to the impact of tropical cyclones (TCs), which in turn induce floods in the region (Qiu et al. 2019; Fang et al. 2020). In this study, TC-induced rainfall is defined as extreme precipitation. Return period (RP) is usually used to predict the probability of the occurrence of extreme hydrometeorological events (Fang et al. 2011), thus a RP was defined as the probability of a flash flood disaster event occurring. Based on this definition an analysis of flash flood hazard changes was developed. Existing assessments of the modeling capabilities of climate models indicate that there is a lack of consideration of extreme rainfall characteristics even though the models have been downscaled (Lafon et al. 2013; Chen et al. 2017). Therefore, it is necessary to extract the extreme rainfall characteristics in the region and take them into consideration in the rainfall model to obtain the flash flood hazard change under future scenarios (Zhang et al. 2019).
In the southeastern coastal areas of China, TC-induced rainfall events occur from June to September (Qiu et al. 2019), so we considered only the rainfall characteristics during this period of the year. Spatially, the geographic location of the six meteorological stations was adopted as the center, and if a TC moving center is located within 5° (approximately 500 km) from the longitude and latitude coordinates of the station position, the rainfall at the station can be considered a TC effect (Fang et al. 2011). Temporally, the rainfall during TC impact periods can be defined as tropical cyclone-induced rainfall (Fang et al. 2011). Accordingly, we obtained a set of 153 TCs that affected the Yantanxi River Basin in 1971−2019. In this study, we considered the beginning of a continuous rainfall event as the moment when the hourly rainfall surpasses 4 mm, and the end of the rainfall event occurs when the rainfall remains below 4 mm over the next 6 consecutive hours (Chen et al. 2019). We compared the observed rainfall events and the impact TCs, and separated the rainfall into extreme precipitation and regular precipitation. Accordingly, the annual maximum (AM) sequences of observed (1971–2019) extreme rainfall events can be constructed, the Gumbel distribution function was adopted to fit the AM sequences of precipitation to obtain the RPs (Fang et al. 2011), and the RPs of precipitation in the historical scenario were obtained.
As the climate model data are available as grid data, rainfall characteristics for the six meteorological stations under the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios were obtained by linear interpolation. Thus, the AM sequences of precipitation under climate change scenarios (1950−2100) can be constructed. To include the extreme rainfall characteristics of case area in the climate model, the mean ratio between the rainfall and rainfall intensity of the extreme precipitation events and regular precipitation events at the six meteorological stations was used as the model rainfall correction factor. This correction coefficient was used as the starting point, with step sizes of 0.1 and 20 steps to determine the optimal correction factor. We multiplied the AM sequence of the historical scenario in the climate model (1950−2005) by the optimal correction coefficient to derive the corrected series. Comparing the observed (1971–2019) rainfall and model-corrected (1950−2005) rainfall of same RPs (100a, 500a, 1,000a, and 1,500a), the mean relative error between the two sequences was 0.67%, which occurred within the acceptable error range after considering the extreme characteristics of flood disaster events (Mishra et al. 2018). Likewise, this method is appropriate for the future scenarios (2052−2100) correction.
##### 2.3.2.2 Flash Flood Inundation Characteristics
To obtain the inundation characteristics of flash floods, this study coupled the semi-fractional Hydrologic Engineering Center−Hydrologic Modeling System (HEC-HMS) hydrologic model with the FLO-2D hydrodynamic model. The HEC-HMS model is used for the acquisition of numerical watershed parameters and the calculation of direct runoff. The HEC-HMS model can be used to simulate runoff processes in basins where hydrological data are lacking, similar to the Yantanxi River Basin. The FLO-2D model is a two-dimensional dynamic model based on continuity and motion equations and, combined with flood rheological characteristics (O’Brien et al. 1993), the current model is mainly used to simulate surface flooding and debris flow inundation characteristics of plains, creeks, alluvial fans, rivers, or other artificial channels (Peng and Lu 2013; Mishra et al. 2018). The inundation extent, inundation depth, flow velocity, and impact force characteristics of flash floods can be expressed in the defined grid through the FLO-2D.
The HEC-HMS and FLO-2D coupling steps are: (1) The digital elevation model (DEM) was applied on the Geo-HMS tool in the ArcGIS platform to analyze the filling, flow direction, confluence, and basin division aspects and obtained a basin digital model. (2) Through application of the basin digital model and substitution of the rainfall sequence into the HEC-HMS model, we defined simulation start and end times to obtain the hydrological characteristics of the basin. (3) Clear water flow process lines were input, as retrieved from the HEC-HMS model, flood outflow areas were defined in the FLO-2D model, and then we obtained the flood inundation area, inundation depth, impact force, and flood velocity after setting the simulation time and time step.

#### 2.3.3 Exposure Assessment of the Yantanxi River Basin

Exposure analysis is an important basis for disaster risk assessment. First, the unit of analysis needs to be determined. Second, we need to determine the type and the amount of assets that are exposed to flash floods. Due to the limitations of the current data, this study analyzed the exposure characteristics of the study area based on county-level statistics. The PD, GD, PG, and PA indicators can be obtained through spatial analysis in ArcGIS. The asset value was defined as total areal exposure value, which serves as a mixed economic indicator to maximize the portrayal of disaster damage. The spatial distribution of asset values in the future i-th year can be predicted by the coefficient M that indicates the relationship between GDP and asset value in 2019. In this study M = 3.5.
$$Asset_{i} = M \cdot GDP_{i}$$
(2)
Socioeconomic data (population and GDP) with a spatial resolution of 0.5°are still too coarse for the river basin scale analysis. Therefore, they need to be corrected. In this study, we used a linear correction process based on spatial analysis in ArcGIS and the county-level statistical data of 2005−2019, and keep the estimation error only within the county units (Zhao et al. 2017).
$$SE^{^{\prime}} = SE_{i} \cdot \frac{SE}{{SE_{ county} }}$$
(3)
where $${SE}^{{^{\prime}}}$$ is the linearly corrected socioeconomic value, $${SE}_{i}$$ is the predicted values for each grid, $$SE$$ is the historical statistical values, and $${SE}_{ county}$$ is the predicted socioeconomic element at the county level.

#### 2.3.4 Risk Assessment of Flash Floods

Vulnerability curves for the study area were obtained from the literature—the questionnaire survey data on natural hazards and disasters were generated by Liu (2011) for Shuitou Town (located to the southwest of Yongjia County), Wenzhou City, which has a similar location to Yantan Town. We screened the data to obtain 10 samples, and constructed a damage model based on the SPSS platform to predict economic losses from flash floods in the Yantanxi River Basin. The R2 of the damage model is 0.52, and the expression is:
$$L = 2.14D^{2} + 3.75D + 0.65$$
(4)
where L is the damage rate of flood disaster, 0 ≤ L ≤ 100; and D is the inundation depth, D ≥ 0.

#### 2.3.5 Geographical Detector

The geographical detector provides the technical method for the spatial differentiation of geographic elements and reveals the driving forces behind regional risk changes (Wang et al. 2010; Wang et al. 2016; Wang and Xu 2017). Through the geographical detector we predicted the contribution of the flash flood impact factors (x) to the risk change (y), and the contribution rate is measured by q:
$$q = 1 - \frac{{\mathop \sum \nolimits_{h = 1}^{L} N_{h} \sigma_{h}^{2} }}{{N\sigma^{2} }}$$
(5)
where h = 1,2,...,L is the grading of the independent variable x, and $${N}_{h}$$ and $$N$$ are the number of samples at level h and the entire area. The $${\sigma }^{2}$$ and $${\sigma }_{h}^{2}$$ indicate the variations in the entire area and level h, respectively. The value range of q is 0 to 1, and a larger value of q indicates a higher contribution rate of the x to the y (Wang et al. 2010; Wang and Xu 2017).
The geographical detector requires the input independent variable to be a discrete type quantity, so the results of the study need to be discretized according to a defined hierarchy. The natural break method is often used in the process of disaster risk assessment (Shi 2016). The method considers the existence of breakpoints in the array, while maximizing the similarity within each group and maximizing the difference between the classes:
$$SSD_{i - j} = \mathop \sum \limits_{k = 1}^{j} A\left[ k \right]^{2} - \frac{{\left( {\mathop \sum \nolimits_{k = 1}^{j} A\left[ k \right]} \right)^{2} }}{j - i + 1}$$
(6)
where SSD means variance, i and j refer to the i-th and j-th elements, A refers to an array of length N, K indicates the K-th element in group A, and the K value ranges between i to j.

## 3 Results

We used the hazard assessment model and vulnerability model presented in the previous section to predict the change in risk of flash floods with same probability of occurrence, and analyzed the driving factors of the risk change.

### 3.1 Risk Assessment of Flash Floods

As described in Sect. 2.1, the Yantanxi River Basin experienced heavy rainfall from 0:00 on 19 July to 11:00 on 20 July 2005 through Super Typhoon Haitang, and the process rainfall records of the 2005 flash flood disaster event from the six meteorological stations are shown in Fig. 2. In the 2005 flash flood disaster event, the process rainfall at Yongjia station was 328.76 mm (83a), and the rainfall at the Yueqing station was the most extreme, reaching 394.44 mm (120a). Considering the results of the meteorological station weighting and the definitions in 2.3, the return period of the 2005 flash flood was estimated at approximately 83 years. Under the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios, the rainfall with the same RP at the Yongjia station is 405.11 mm and 483.96 mm, respectively, with an increase of 76.35 mm and 155.2 mm. The other five meteorological stations had an average increase of 23.94% and 49.46% in the same RP rainfall (Table 2). Then, the hourly rainfall assignments for future rainfall events were made based on historical rainfall processes.

Based on the assumption that the surface characteristics remain unchanged, the flash flood hazard under different scenarios can be expressed through FLO-2D. The results show that the change in flash flood inundation extent is not significant, and the hazard is increasing with the same probability of the disaster event. The flash flood inundation area under the future scenario (2052−2100) increases over the historical scenario (2005), which attains an inundation area of 36.44 km2 and increases by 3.41% and 7.10% under the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios, respectively. The area with an inundation depth ranging from 2.00–3.00 m under the RCP4.5 scenario is 8.26 km2 or 71.32% larger than that under the historical scenario. The area with an inundation depth ranging from 3.00–4.00 m also changes under the RCP8.5 scenario, and is larger than that under the historical scenario by about 87.78%. Moreover, considering an inundation depth greater than 4.00 m, the area under the future scenarios increases 0.11 km2 and 3.35 km2, respectively. Under the historical, RCP4.5, and RCP8.5 scenarios, the percentages of areas with inundation depth > 2.00 m are 8.59%, 25.32%, and 38.36% respectively, while the percentages of areas with inundation depth < 2.00 m are 91.14%, 74.68%, and 61.64%, respectively (Fig. 3).
Considering the regional exposure characteristics, the flash flood risk assessment results indicate that a total asset value of CNY 0.73 billion (2019 prices) was exposed to the 2005 flash flood disaster event. Based on the predicted recurrence time of the 2005 disaster event, the asset value can be calculated through the GDP in 2088, to obtain the damage caused by flash floods under future scenarios. Under the RCP4.5-SSP2 and RCP8.5-SSP5 scenarios, the exposed asset values are expected to reach CNY 7.36 billion and CNY 13.85 billion, respectively. We estimated the economic damage in the 2005 flash flood disaster event was CNY 0.13 billion. Under the RCP4.5-SSP2 and RCP8.5-SSP5 scenarios, the economic damage due to flash floods is expected to reach CNY 1.16 billion and CNY 2.94 billion, respectively, and the risk of flash flood increases by 88.79% and 95.57%, respectively. The proportion of economic damage in the areas with inundation depth > 2.00 m under the historical, RCP4.5-SSP2, and RCP8.5-SSP5 scenarios is 9.37%, 45.77%, and 70.03%, respectively, while the proportion of economic damage of inundation depth < 2.00 m areas is 90.63%, 54.23%, and 29.97%, respectively (Fig. 4).

### 3.2 Analysis of the Driving Factors of Change in Flash Flood Risk

This study examined the variation of risk driving factors in different areas through a simple 100 random sampling, and the mean contribution of driving factors is shown in Fig. 5. Among the hazard indicators, process rainfall (PR) has the largest contribution rate, with 0.59, 0.79, and 0.85 under the historical, RCP4.5-SSP2, and RCP8.5-SSP5 scenarios, respectively, with an increasing trend in the contribution to flash flood risk. The contribution of impact force (IF) to risk shows a fluctuating decrease with an average contribution of 0.26. The contribution of flow velocity (FV) to changes in flash flood risk is the weakest, with an average contribution of 0.10. Impact force and flow velocity correlate with changes in surface features in the study area. Among the exposure indicators, the contributions of GDP density (GD) and asset density (AD) to risk are significantly prominent, with the contribution of GD being 0.84, 0.82, and 0.89 under the three scenarios, respectively, which is better than the other indicators to explain the risk variation characteristics of flash floods in the Yantanxi River Basin. As the population decreases under the future scenario, the contribution of population density (PD) to risk tends to decrease to 0.74, 0.72, and 0.56, respectively. The development of socioeconomic factors promotes the increase of regional inputs and the strengthening of regional protection capacity, thus the contribution of per capita asset value (PA) to risk shows a significant decreasing trend, and its contribution is 0.59, 0.53, and 0.20 under the historical, RCP4.5-SSP2, and RCP8.5-SSP5 scenarios, respectively. The mean contribution of per capita GDP (PG) is 0.64. In general, the natural and socioeconomic factors combine to increase the risk of flash floods in the Yantanxi River Basin. According to the mean contribution rate of each indicator under the three scenarios, the main factors that affect the flash flood risk change in the basin are GD (q = 0.85) > PR (q = 0.74) > AD (q = 0.68) > PD (q = 0.67).

## 4 Discussion

In this study, based on the principles of disaster risk assessment, we identified the flash flood risk assessment indicators and used them under a combination of the RCP and SSP scenarios to obtain the changes of flash flood risk in the Yantanxi River Basin in the context of climate change, and predicted the contributions of the driving factors behind the risk change.
Under the RCP4.5-SSP2 and RCP8.5-SSP5 scenarios, the area affected by flash floods is increasing in the Yantanxi River Basin, which is consistent with the characteristics of flash floods in other river basins (Chen et al. 2019; Yang et al. 2020). The NEX-GDDP dataset downscales the rainfall of future scenarios by means of bias correction, which better reflects the Chinese rainfall characteristics and can be better applied to the analysis of the rainfall characteristics at the river basin scale (Chen et al. 2017; Zhang et al. 2019; Li et al. 2020). Inevitably, after downscaling, there are still internal errors in the choice of parameters within the climate model (Chen et al. 2017). In addition, the effect of the elevated topography in the region is such that the climate model underestimates the extreme precipitation characteristics of the region (Lafon et al. 2013). To this end, considering the impact of tropical cyclones on rainfall in the study area, this study used tropical cyclone-induced rainfall as a representative of extreme precipitation in the region, the rainfall characteristics of six meteorological stations were extracted through spatial and temporal element analysis (Fang et al. 2011), and the impact of these characteristics were added for future scenarios. Because rainfall is the main trigger of flash floods, the corrected rainfall data provide the basis for flash flood risk assessment. To better reflect the changes of flash flood risk with the same disaster event probability, this study assigned future scenario rainfall according to the historical rainfall process. Due to the lack of data on hydrological elements, we coupled the HEC-HMS and FLO-2D models to obtain the characteristics of flash floods under different scenarios. Based on the assumption of constant subsurface characteristics, the impact areas of flash floods in the Yantanxi River Basin increased by 3.41% and 7.10% under the RCP4.5-SSP2 and RCP8.5-SSP5 scenarios (2052−2100), respectively, compared with the historical scenario (2005). Differences in characteristics—such as the location of the study area, the characteristics of regional rainfall, selection of climate model data, model downscaling methods, subsurface, and hydrological elements—can lead to different predicted risk results (Hurkmans et al. 2010; Lafon et al. 2013; Dahm et al. 2016).
Under the future scenarios (2052−2100), the risk of flash floods in the Yantanxi River Basin increases by 88.79% and 95.57% compared with the historical scenario (2005). According to the definition of flash flood risk, the change in its risk is expressed quantitatively in terms of economic damage (Shi 2016). First, considering the principle of similarity of location, we selected the disaster survey data and constructed the vulnerability curves of flash floods in the Yantanxi River Basin, while introducing the asset value to maximize the portrayal of economic damage caused by flash floods (UNDRR 2013; Wu et al. 2014; Li et al. 2017). Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology (NUIST) localized SSP data after considering the characteristics of Chinese socioeconomic elements, which provides data support for climate change risk studies at regional and river basin scales (Jiang et al. 2018; Huang et al. 2019). In order to reduce the variation in spatial resolution and keep the error in the results only within the region, the socioeconomic characteristics of the future scenarios were corrected for the relationship between the statistical data and the forecast data (Zhao et al. 2017). Based on the corrected SSPs, we predicted the flash flood risk for future scenarios under the assumption of constant vulnerability of the exposed assets. Differences in disaster exposure values (such as GDP, housing replacement cost, and so on), the change of region vulnerability, and correction methods of socioeconomic data will lead to differences in the results of risk assessment (Dutta et al. 2003; Pistrika et al. 2014; Armal et al. 2020).
Based on the constructed flash flood risk assessment indicator system, the driving factors for the change of flash flood risk are GD > PR > PD > AD. The risks in this study are expressed in terms of economic damage, the changes of which are closely related to the development of GDP. The geographical detector provides a reference for detecting the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of geographical things, and further reveals the characteristics of the driving factors behind the risk changes (Wang et al. 2010; Wang et al. 2016; Wang and Xu 2017). Geographical detector analysis requires discrete variables. The natural break method in disaster risk assessment was used to discretize the independent and dependent variables in this study. Liu et al. (2018) used the geographical detector to analyze the spatial distribution characteristics of flash flood disasters in China and pointed out that the main driving factor is precipitation. In their research, 11 ecological zones in China were taken as the research area, and the indicators, including rainfall and human activities, were selected to detect their driving effects on historical flash flood events in China from 1951−2015 (Liu et al. 2018). One of the reasons why their findings differ from this study is that their variables were discretized by the centroid comparison method, and the system of indicators chosen also differed from this study. Thus, the resulting final detected impact factors are different from our research. Therefore, factors such as research scale, risk expression, and the choice of the factor discretization method can lead to differences in the detected impact factors (Wang and Xu 2017; Gusain et al. 2020; Rong et al. 2020).
There are limitations in our study and improvements can be made in three aspects:
(1)
Considering more factors that affect the extreme rainfall to improve the assessment of hazard changes in the study area. Although based on the existing research, there are still errors with observed precipitation due to the large uncertainties in tropical cyclones and the difficulties in the simulation of TCs and their impacts by climate models (Sobel et al. 2016; Ye et al. 2019). In future studies, the factors that affect extreme rainfall such as topography and regional circulation should also be considered, in order to improve the accuracy of regional extreme rainfall prediction (Sun et al. 2015). Based on the available data, this study used meteorological station data to analyze the rainfall characteristics in the study area, and the errors arising from the results would be greater than the results from gauge stations. Moreover, we selected only a single climate model with better simulation ability in China and carried out our analysis of precipitation characteristics under future scenarios using this model. Chen et al. (2020) used CMIP3 and CMIP5 data to investigate the changing characteristics of typhoon–rainfall–landslide features in Taiwan in the context of climate change. Their findings show that the ensemble scenarios method can minimize the uncertainty in the assessment results compared with each individual model, and the most extreme change features can be identified (Chen et al. 2020). In future studies, the ensemble method can be used to simulate regional extreme rainfall and the effect on flash floods (Mishra et al. 2018; Goodarzi et al. 2019).

Considering the impact of the surface characteristics on the flash flood risk assessment. In this study, we developed the simulation of flash flood hazard under the future scenarios based on the assumption that subsurface characteristics remain unchanged, which increases the uncertainty of flash flood risk assessment. Lin et al. (2020) elaborated on an approach that employs a future land-use simulation model (FLUS) for 100a coastal flood risk assessment, and the results indicate that there is a significant contribution of subsurface changes to flooding hazard. In future studies, we can predict the changes of surface features such as random forest by machine learning algorithms, so that the impact of surface features on flash flood risk can be incorporated (Deshmukh et al. 2013; Wang et al. 2021).

The method of risk assessment needs to be improved. In this study, vulnerability curves were constructed based on the town-scale flood disaster survey of Wenzhou City in 2011, and correction of the vulnerability curve was lacking in the risk assessment of future scenarios. At the same time, the sample size of disaster data has an impact on the accuracy of damage predictions. In addition, this study used asset values as the characteristics of exposure and predicted asset value under future scenarios based on the relationship coefficient, without considering the changes of the area. In future studies, the vulnerability curve can be updated by means of a local survey, or improved by appropriate parameter correction (Pistrika et al. 2014; Zhang et al. 2021). With the improvement of disaster database construction and spatialization methods, the prediction of regional exposure value can be improved (Ma et al. 2014; Chen and Nordhaus 2015; Wu et al. 2018). Since this study focused on the application of natural hazard risk assessment methods in the context of climate change, the assessment results contain many uncertainties. The uncertainty in the assessment results can be quantified by probability theory in future studies (Yi et al. 2014).

## 5 Conclusion

Using the publicly available data and based on existing research, this study conducted a flash flood risk assessment under climate change in the Yantanxi River Basin of southeastern China. The results show that compared to the historical scenario (2005), the areas affected by flash floods increased by 3.41% and 7.10% respectively under the RCP 4.5 (2052−2100) and RCP 8.5 (2052−2100) scenarios, which is not a very significant change. In addition, there is a decreasing trend for the areas with an inundation depth below 2 m, whereas the areas with inundation depth greater than 2 m exhibit an increasing trend. The risk of flash floods with the same probability of occurrence is increasing under climate change. This study constructed the vulnerability curves based on the 2011 flood disaster survey data. Under the assumption of constant vulnerability of the exposed assets, the risk of flash flood disaster increases by 88.79% and 95.57% respectively under the RCP 4.5-SSP2 and RCP 8.5-SSP5 scenarios, compared to the historical scenario. Socioeconomic factors are the main drivers of change in flash flood risks. The geographical detector analysis result shows that the main factors that affect the change of flash flood risk are GDP density, process rainfall, asset density, and population density.
The assessment results highlight that the changes in climatic and socioeconomic conditions increase the risk of flash floods. For people living in areas affected by flash floods, there is a need to increase education and awareness of flash flood precautions. Our findings suggest that socioeconomic development will boost regional disaster prevention capacity, but at the same time drive the increase in flash flood risk. Considering these impacts, balancing economic growth, risk management, and risk avoidance is an important issue that needs to be addressed in the long-term development of the area, which is strongly supported by tourism.
