Isaac Besarra was featured on episode 75 of the Behind the Science Podcast, Flooded Futures: Modelling the Housing Damage in Leyte under Climate Change, discussing his research on flood risk to housing in Carigara, Leyte under future climate change scenarios.
In the episode, Isaac unpacks how he combined flood modelling with building-level vulnerability curves to project the cost of flood damage to housing at the local level under the RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 climate scenarios — work completed during his MPhil in the lab and published in the Journal of Environmental Management. Isaac is now a PhD student at the University of Twente. Watch the episode below, or listen on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
