Abstract
The aim of this study is to show the relationships of landforms, floods and land use changes around Laguna Lacustrine Plain, Manila, Philippines. we proved that floods respond to the landforms through comparing a landform classifiation map with satellite images, and then we evaluated the influence of the urbanized bank up areas on the flow of floods using GlS. As a result, we suggested the importance of connected urban green spaces that decrease flood hazard.
