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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of trend analysis and climate change projections of extreme precipitation and floods in Europe
TL;DR: In this article, a review of trend analysis of extreme precipitation and hydrological floods in Europe based on observations and future climate projections is presented, showing that there is some evidence of a general increase in extreme precipitation, whereas there are no clear indications of significant trends at large scale regional or national level of extreme streamflow.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the current knowledge on flood regime changes in European rivers that has traditionally been obtained through two alternative research approaches: data-based detection of changes in observed flood events and modelled scenarios of future floods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing the impact of urbanization on storm runoff in a peri-urban catchment using historical change in impervious cover
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated changes in storm runoff resulting from the transformation of previously rural landscapes into peri-urban areas and found that the degree of area serviced by storm drainage was a stronger determinant of storm runoff response than either impervious area or development type and that little distinction in hydrological response exists between urban and periurban developments of similar impervious cover when no significant hydraulic alteration is present.
