Projections of Future Flood Risk

Published:
18 May 2021

Assessment:
CCRA3-IA

Country focus:
UK

The CCC previously commissioned projections of current and future flood risk for the UK to inform the CCRA2 Evidence Report. This project updates those projections for the CCRA3 Evidence Report to take into account the new UKCP18 climate projections and the latest understanding of flood risk calculations and flood risk management policies. The project looks at river, coastal, surface water and groundwater flooding, and takes into account climate change, population growth and adaptation to project various metrics of flood risk (e.g. properties, people and assets exposed as well as annual expected damages) in the mid and late century for each of the four UK countries.
