Changes in Flood Risk in Europe cover

This book delivers a wealth of information on changes in flood risk in Europe, and considers causes for change. The temporal coverage is mostly focused on post-1900 events, reflecting the typical availability of data, but some information on earlier flood events is also included.

The book provides challenging data for an audience whose interest is in controlling water and perhaps, especially, for those involved with the “Building – Working – Engineering with Nature” movements.

The stated aim of the book is to make as much national information as possible available to a broad, international readership so that comparisons, syntheses and knowledge exchange can lead to a better understanding of what future flood risks may be and how we can best prepare for them.
