In 2019, the Kanto-Koshin area and the Tohoku area suffered devastating damage from floods and sediment disasters caused by the record-breaking heavy rainfall that came with Typhoon No. 19 (Hagibis). In the same year, the heavy rainfall caused severe damage in the northern part of Kyushu area, such as Saga Prefecture, as well as the wind and rain disaster caused by Typhoon No. 15 (Faxai) in Chiba Prefecture. These disasters also highlighted the danger posed by a series of disasters that could cause extensive damage in large areas due to combinations of multiple factors. It is one of the missions of JSCE to compile and disseminate lessons learned from disasters in Japan for solving future challenging issues in managing infrastructures and mitigating disaster damage. This special issue on the storm and flood damage in 2019 in Japan includes valuable information on the disasters in 2019 from different disciplinary points of view, aiming to contribute to the growth and development of interdisciplinary academic fields of civil and environmental engineering.
