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 .

Adapted from Figure 13.25(b) of the Working Group I contribution to the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report ( http://www.climatechange2013.org/images/figures/WGI_AR5_Fig13-25.jpg ). The dataset is based on the Summary of AR5 regional projections and allowances, from the Antarctic Climate & Ecosystems Cooperative Research Centre ( http://www.acecrc.org.au/ ), 2014.
Sea-level data from tide gauges were supplied by European Sea-Level Service, Global Sea Level Observing System (GLOSS) Delayed Mode Centre, Helpdesk Water (Netherlands), Instituto Español de Oceanographia (Spain), Istituto Talassografico di Trieste (Italy), Marine Environmental Data Service (Canada), National Oceanography Centre Liverpool (UK), National Tidal Centre (Bureau of Meteorology, Australia), Norwegian Mapping Authority, Service Hydrographique et Océanographique de la Marine (France), Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute and University of Hawaii Sea Level Centre (USA). Sea-level rise projections are based on the CMIP5 ensemble of global climate models.
