Number of flood events (left); number of deaths per flood event (right): Note: Flood events include flash floods, river floods and storm surges in Europe (1976-2001).

Number of people affected by flooding per million population in the WHO European Region: Number of people affected by flooding per million population in the WHO European Region (annual average 2000–2011). ‘People affected’, as defined in EM-DAT, are people who require immediate assistance during a period of emergency, including displaced or evacuated people. EM-DAT/CRED and the Dartmouth Flood Observatory were analysed to determine the flooded countries in the WHO European Region and the impact of these floods.

Percentage of the city that would be flooded in case rivers rise one metre: Percentage of the city that would be flooded in case water in rivers rises 1 m (only cities > 100 000 hab). The city is defined by its biophysical delineation (Urban Morphological Zone) inside the core city boundaries (Urban Audit). The background shows the relative change in 100-year return level of river discharge. Neither coastal floods nor flood protection measures are considered in the calculations.

Projected change in damage of river floods with a 100-year return period between 2071-2100 and 1961-1990: Note: Model calculation using the IPCC SRES scenario A2 and NUTS2 level.
