TL;DR: Analysis of a comprehensive European flood dataset reveals regional changes in river flood discharges in the past five decades that are broadly consistent with climate model projections for the next century, suggesting that climate-driven changes are already happening and supporting calls for the consideration of climate change in flood risk management.

TL;DR: Analysis of the timing of river floods in Europe over the past 50 years found clear patterns of changes in flood timing that can be ascribed to climate effects, and highlights the existence of a clear climate signal in flood observations at the continental scale.

TL;DR: In 2015, a long-lasting drought hit Europe, particularly affecting central and eastern Europe as discussed by the authors, and it is generally accepted that drought is one of the most costly weather-related natural hazards.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors show that risk management generally reduces the impacts of floods and droughts, but faces difficulties in reducing impacts of unprecedented events of a magnitude not previously experienced.

TL;DR: In this article, various aspects of hydrological hazards in Russia are analyzed at different scales of risk assessment, and an integrated index that accounts for flood hazards and socioeconomic vulnerability was calculated for each region of Russia.
