Total economic losses, insured economic losses and fatalities per hazard type. Hazard types: meteorological hazards, hydrological hazards, climatological hazards (heat waves), climatological hazards (other).
The map shows the drought situation in Europe in the first ten-day period of August 2022 (from 1 to 10 August 2022). The method is based in 6 impact levels. These levels are: "Watch" (yellow colour) when a relevant precipitation shortage is observed, "Warning" (orange) when this precipitation shortage comes with a soil moisture anomaly, "Alert" (red) when these two conditions are accompanied with an anomaly in the vegetation condition, "Temporary soil moisture recovery" (purple) when after a drought episode, soil moisture conditions went below the drought threshold but did not improve enough to consider the episode closed; "Temporary vegetation recovery" (green) when after a drought episode, vegetation conditions went below the drought threshold but did not improve enough to consider the episode closed; "Recovery" (blue) when meteorological, soil moisture, and vegetation normal conditions are recovered.
European annual mean air temperature trend (temperature regressed on time as the independent variable) expressed as multiples of the annual mean global temperature trend between 1950 and 2023, on a grid-point level.
Total number of flood events with significant socio-economic impacts by type (bar chart) and the mortality rate per year (cartogram), for the period 1870-2020.
Spatially aggregated regions for four sub-continental land and four marine regions. Regionalisation for land regions based on UN Geoscheme for Europe.
The WISE Water Framework Directive maps contain information from the River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) reported by EU Member States, Norway and the United Kingdom according to article 13 of the Water Framework Directive (WFD). The maps include the River Basin Districts (RBDs) and their sub-units, the surface water bodies (water body category, ecological status or potential and chemical status), the groundwater bodies (aquifer type, quantitative status and chemical status) and the monitoring sites
The Quality Elements map contains information from the River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) reported by EU Member States, Norway and the United Kingdom according to article 13 of the Water Framework Directive (WFD). The map shows the quality element status or potential for the European surface water bodies. The Quality Element status layer contains the ecological status or potential based on the quality element status value (i.e. the lowest of the known quality element status values per waterbody).
The figure shows changes in population abundance of 15 grassland butterfly species at EU level, using 1991 as reference year. The grassland butterfly index is presented as a smoothed time series and is calculated with 95% confidence limits.
The figure shows the share of bathing water of excellent quality by type and bathing season.
The quietness suitability index (QSI) provides the overview with the highest (QSI=1) and lowest (QSI=0) proportion of potential quiet areas in Europe.
The table shows the countries' reporting performance on the basis of Eionet Core Data Flows since 2005
Additional number of days per year with high-to-extreme fire danger by weather (daily Fire Weather Index≥30), compared with the situation in the reference time period 1981-2010, for different levels of global warming. Median ensemble of five model-statistics (see recommended References).
The figure shows a snapshot of the coverage of Climate-ADAPT case studies with 123 case studies in total (The case studies collected at national level, provided by AdapteCCA.es, where removed from the list of case studies (value 10)) by March 2024.
The figure shows a snapshot of the number of case studies per policy sectors by March 2024.
The figure shows a snapshot of the number of case studies that implement Climate-ADAPT adaptation options (58 in total, see here: https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/en/knowledge/adaptation-information/adaptation-options) for each of the five risk clusters of the European Climate-Risk Assessment by March 2024.
Above chart: Global annual averages of near-surface temperature of land and ocean expressed as the anomaly relative to the pre-industrial period 1850-1900 according to the datasets used by the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S): ERA5 (C3S/ECMWF), JRA-55 (JMA), GISTEMPv4 (NASA), HadCRUT5 (Met Office Hadley Centre), NOAAGlobalTempv6 (NOAA) and Berkeley Earth.
