“…This was most common for studies that used simulated data to examine sociohydrological processes. For example, multiple studies simulated flood events to better understand pathways for city development (Viglione et al, 2014) or observe interactions between flood risk and behavior (Ridolfi et al, 2020a). Alternatively, some studies used models to simulate changes in a sociohydrology system over the course of the implementation of a specific policy (Du et al, 2020) or flood management strategy (Albertini et al, 2020).…”

Sociohydrology is a recent effort to integrate coupled human-water systems to understand the dynamics and co-evolution of the system in a holistic sense. However, due to the complexity and uncertainty involved in coupled human-water systems, the feedbacks and interactions are inherently difficult to model. Part of this complexity is due to the multi-scale nature across space and time at which different hydrologic and social processes occur and the varying scale at which data is available. This systematic review seeks to comprehensively collect those documents that conduct analysis within the sociohydrology framework to quantify the spatial-temporal scale(s) and the types of variables and datasets that were used. Overall, a majority of sociohydrology studies reviewed were primarily published in hydrological journals and contain more established hydrological, rather than social, models. The spatial extents varied by political and natural boundaries with the most common being cities and watersheds. Temporal extents also varied from event-based to millennial timescales where decadal and yearly were the most common. In addition to this, current limitations of sociohydrology research, notably the absence of an interdisciplinary unity, future directions, and implications for scholars doing sociohydrology are discussed.

“…However, structural mitigation through construction of protective infrastructure and resistant structures (e.g., levee) will produce the illusion of safety. White (1945) theorizes that flood mitigation structures might increase flood risk, as protection from frequent flooding reduces the public risk awareness, which is called as “the levee effect” (Ridolfi et al 2020 ). Hence, it can be inferred that levees in study area have led these residents to having a “low” risk perception of flooding even ignoring the risk of the Yangtze River.…”

<p><em>The research was aimed to determine (1) people knowledge level for the flood risk in Surakarta; (2) people perception of the flood risk in Surakarta; (3) community participation in the flood management in Surakarta. The city of Surakarta was chosen as the research location since this area was commonly flooded in rainy seasons and even in one year there can be floods repeatedly. Data collection methods used was field observation, structured interview and FGD. Data analysis was done by scoring. The results showed that: (1) Surakarta resident knowledge of the flood risk was in the high category. They can independently adapt to the flood disasters that often hit their area; (2) People perceptions of the flood risk disaster were in the high category. This was due to the Early Warning System (EWS) and the Search and rescue (SAR) teams information system which were well managed and easily accessed, (3) People participation in flood disaster management in Surakarta was in the "medium" category. The people participation in funding contributions and community service activities was high. However, the participation in the maintenance of water pumps, floodgates and river embankments was low.</em></p>
