Abstract
Floods are the most destructive natural disaster. Due to predicted climate change, hydrological risks will increase in the North and the Arctic, which makes residents of these regions vulnerable. The population of flood-prone areas is aware of the potential flooding, but is not always prepared for it, just like the management system. The article presents the results of a survey conducted in eight settlements of Yakutia previously affected by floods, half of which are located in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. The researchers reveal that the perception of hydrological risks by the population is influenced by the amount of damage suffered during the last flood, and the assessment of the effectiveness of various levels of management during the flood and at the recovery stage is influenced by the amount and form of its compensation.
