They are a threat to human lives, often displacing communities and inflicting billions in economic damages worldwide. In this context, scientists working at the Joint Research Centre (JRC) provide critical data on flood patterns, enabling policymakers and relevant authorities to devise informed strategies.</p> <p>The primary responsibility for preventing, preparing for, and responding to natural and man-made disasters lies within countries. But through cutting-edge algorithms combining in-situ data (e.g. river heights) with meteorological forecasts, JRC sends alerts to registered authorised users about potentially-affected regions or river/tributary sections.This allows them to devise response strategies to protect people and livelihoods.</p> <p>At JRC, we are proud to contribute to the global understanding of flood dynamics by sharing all our data freely with the international community. This allows fostering collaborations and exchanging best practices within dedicated expert groups. The <a href="https://drmkc.jrc.ec.europa.eu/initiatives-services/social-media-driven-disaster-risk-management" class="ecl-link">social media for disaster risk management expert group</a> is a key example of such collaborations.

The economic impacts could be halved, and the number of people exposed reduced by 230,000, if global warming is limited to 1.5C.</p> <p>Adaptation strategies could further reduce future flood impacts significantly, in a cost-effective manner, and have co-benefits. For example, reducing river flood peaks by installing retention reservoirs would reduce river flood damage in 2100 by nearly 40 €billion/year and also improve ecosystem quality.</p> <p><a href="https://joint-research-centre.ec.europa.eu/peseta-projects/jrc-peseta-iv/river-floods_en" class="ecl-link">Read more about climate change and river floods</a></p> <h3>Coastal floods</h3> <p>Without mitigation and adaptation measures, annual damage from coastal flooding in the EU and UK could increase sharply from 1.4 €billion nowadays to almost 240 €billion by 2100.</p> <p>Around 95% of these impacts could be avoided through moderate mitigation and by raising dykes where human settlements and economically important areas exist along the coastline.
