要旨

Floods are common and costly natural hazards. The Historical Analysis of Natural Hazards in Europe (HANZE) database shows 2,521 floods with significant socio-economic impacts between 1870 and 2020 (Paprotny et al., 2023). In the past 30 years alone, floods in Europe have affected 5.5 million people and killed almost 3,000. They also caused more than EUR 170 billion in economic damage in the same period (Paprotny et al., 2023). Floods can occur for different reasons and take different forms: sea-level rise and storm surges can cause coastal floods; heavy or prolonged rainfall can result in pluvial floods; rivers can swell, causing fluvial floods; and groundwater can rise above the surface or flood basements. Infrastructure such as dams and dikes can fail, often with catastrophic outcomes.
