The analysis of future flood risk in the UK using the Future Flood Explorer
E3S Web of Conferences, 2016 The assessment of future flood risk presented considers three climate change scenarios (a 2°C and 4°C change in Global Mean Temperature by the 2050s and 2080s and a more extreme, but plausible future, the so-called H++ future), and three population ...

CRAF Phase 1, a framework to identify coastal hotspots to storm impacts
E3S Web of Conferences, 2016 Low-frequency high-impact storms can cause flood and erosion over large coastal areas, which in turn can lead to a significant risk to coastal occupation, producing devastation and immobilising cities and even countries.
