Abstract: This work presents the case study of Mexico City (MC), which could observe an increase of pluvial flood due to climate change, urbanization and subsidence. It is presented the development of a simplified model that explicitly integrate the drainage system and the surface runoff for the estimation of both hazard and impacts on population and buildings.
