The International Commission on Large Dams (ICOLD) held its 28th International Congress in Chengdu, China (16 May – 23 May 2025). The proceedings of the congress focussed on four main questions (Questions108-111): 1. Dams and reservoirs for climate change adaptation; 2. Dams and levees fit for the future; 3. Safety of dams and levees facing extreme hydrological events, and 4. Earthquake performance and safety of dams. The book thoroughly discusses these questions and is indispensable for academics, engineers and professionals involved or interested in engineering, hydraulic engineering, and related disciplines.
