A holistic perspective on changing rainfall-driven flood risk is provided for the late 20th and
early 21st centuries. Economic losses from floods have greatly increased, principally driven …

Floods are among the most frequent and most costly natural catastrophes. Major floods
worldwide generated costs over US $ 200Billion in the 1990s alone whereas the summer …

This paper presents an assessment of the implications of climate change for global river
flood risk. It is based on the estimation of flood frequency relationships at a grid resolution of …

This paper provides a general overview of changes in flooding caused by climate change in
Finland for the periods 2010–2039 and 2070–2099. Changes in flooding were evaluated at …

The sensitivity of Acheloos river flood events at the outfall of the mountainous Mesochora
catchment in Central Greece was analysed under various scenarios of global climate …

At the global scale, the warming of the atmosphere will increase the capacity of the
atmosphere to hold and accelerate the redistribution of water in the atmosphere. This …

An approach to considering changes in flooding probability in the integrated assessment of
climate change is introduced. A reduced-form hydrological model for flood prediction and a …

Flood estimation and flood management have traditionally been the domain of hydrologists,
water resources engineers and statisticians, and disciplinary approaches abound. Dominant …

River flood damages, worldwide, have increased dynamically in the last few decades, so
that it is necessary to interpret this change. River flooding is a complex phenomenon which …

Floods occur from a combination of various hydrological, climatological, and land‐use
conditions. In this article, we review recent studies to identify primary causes of floods in …
