Third UK Climate Change Risk Assessment (CCRA3): future flood risk. Main report - Final report prepared for the Committee on Climate Change, UK

Under the Climate Change Act 2008 the UK Government is required to publish a Climate Change Risk Assessment (CCRA) every five years. Following publication of the first two assessments (2012, 2017) the third is due in 2022 and will feed into the development of the next National Adaptation Programme (NAP) for England due in 2023, as well as the National Adaptation Programmes of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Each of these previous assessments include supporting research into future flood risks. This report builds upon those previous assessments to provide an updated (highly spatially resolved and disaggregated) assessment of current and future flood risks.
