Floods Directive : progress in assessing risks, while planning and implementation need to improve / European Court of Auditors. — Luxembourg : European Court of Auditors, 2018
(pursuant to Article 287(4), second subparagraph, TFEU)
Sumario: Floods can cause injury and loss of life, considerable economic costs, and damage to the environment and cultural heritage. Serious floods have become more frequent in Europe. In recent years, more than twice as many flash floods of medium to large magnitude have been registered as in the late eighties. Climate change is an aggravating factor, triggering changes in precipitation and weather patterns, sea level rises and, consequently, more frequent and severe floods. Several phenomena, such as coastal erosion, storms at sea, and high tides and winds pushing tides into the land, heighten the risk of flooding in coastal areas
