  ABSTRACT: Water-related hazards, such as river floods, flash floods and droughts, are becoming more frequent in the Upper Chao Phraya River Basin, Thailand, due to climate change and urbanization, causing significant societal, economic, and environmental damage. This study supports decision-making for nature-based solutions (NBS) to address mitigate these hazards. Using multi-criteria decision analysis, simulation modeling, and spatial analysis, the study identified precipitation and river discharges as key hazard drivers. Mapping hazard severity at various scales, the findings suggest that expanding green areas and water storage can enhance water management and reduce hazard impacts. This research offers critical insights for NBS adoption in water-related risk reduction.
