Change in the frequency of flooding events under projected sea level rise (RCP 4.5; change between 2010 and 2100; multiplication factor), Dec. 2016
This dataset presents the estimated multiplication factor by which the frequency of flooding events of a given height in European tide gauges will change between 2010 and 2100, due to projected regional sea relative level rise under the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) 4.5 scenario. Values larger than 1 indicate an increase in flooding frequency. This dataset is derived from the Figure 13.25(b) of the Working Group I contribution to the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (http://www.climatechange2013.org/images/report/WG1AR5_ALL_FINAL.pdf). This dataset also contributes to an earlier version of the EEA Indicator "Global and European sea-level": https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/sea-level-rise-5/assessment.
