Settlement patterns in the rain flooding of the metropolitan nucleos of a city in northern Perú

Abstract

This research based its analysis on the construction of the risk of pluvial flooding in the study area with the purpose of establishing the relationship between settlement and urban waterproofing and how the occupation of the land and the location are involved in it. The results show that there is an inversely proportional relationship between Housing Density and the Soil Biotic Index, demonstrating that the formal settlement decreases its permeability at a speed 10 times greater than that of the informal settlement.
