As urban populations continue to increase throughout the 21st century, a greater number of people are anticipated to face risks associated with extreme climate events. This study explores the intricate nature of water-related risks to urban communities through a Social-Ecological-Technological Systems (SETS) framework. By integrating hazard, exposure along social, ecological, and technological dimensions of vulnerability, the study offers a differentiated understanding of the risks posed by water-related hazards in urban environments. A hydrological, urban risk index was developed for the City of Barcelona. Seventeen indicators were quantified using historical and modeled data for sewer overflow and flood events. The applied framework offers valuable insights to inform decision-making aimed at mitigating risks by accounting for social, ecological, and technological vulnerabilities, along with identifying risk hotspots where multiple vulnerabilities and exposures converge. The spatially explicit urban risk framework can be applied to other regions confronting sewer overflows, flooding, and similar environmental threats. Mapping SETS risks provides guidance for policymaking geared towards fostering the development of more resilient cities in response to extreme events and the impacts of climate change.<\/p>\n

A mesura que les poblacions urbanes continuen augmentant al llarg del segle XXI, s’espera que un nombre m\u00e9s gran de persones s’enfrontin a riscos associats amb esdeveniments clim\u00e0tics extrems. Aquest estudi explora la naturalesa complexa dels riscos relacionats amb l’aigua per a les comunitats urbanes mitjan\u00e7ant un marc de Sistemes Socials, Ecol\u00f2gics i Tecnol\u00f2gics (SETS). Integrant el perill i l’exposici\u00f3 a trav\u00e9s de les dimensions socials, ecol\u00f2giques i tecnol\u00f2giques de la vulnerabilitat, l’estudi ofereix una comprensi\u00f3 diferenciada dels riscos que plantegen els perills relacionats amb l’aigua en entorns urbans. S’ha desenvolupat un \u00edndex de risc hidrol\u00f2gic i urb\u00e0 per a la ciutat de Barcelona. Disset indicadors han estat quantificats utilitzant dades hist\u00f2riques i modelitzades sobre desbordaments del clavegueram i esdeveniments d’inundaci\u00f3. El marc aplicat proporciona coneixements valuosos per a informar la presa de decisions orientades a mitigar els riscos, tenint en compte les vulnerabilitats socials, ecol\u00f2giques i tecnol\u00f2giques, aix\u00ed com identificant punts cr\u00edtics de risc on convergeixen m\u00faltiples vulnerabilitats i exposicions. El marc de risc urb\u00e0, expl\u00edcitament espacial, es pot aplicar a altres regions que s’enfronten a desbordaments del clavegueram, inundacions i amenaces ambientals similars. La cartografia dels riscos SETS ofereix orientaci\u00f3 per a l’elaboraci\u00f3 de pol\u00edtiques dirigides a fomentar el desenvolupament de ciutats m\u00e9s resilients davant d’esdeveniments extrems i els impactes del canvi clim\u00e0tic.<\/p>\n
