There will be certain synergies with other thematic assessments. As an example for flood protection, a reference can be made to the Hydromorphology report where the information on the hydromorphological aspects of sustainable flood risk management can be found.

A core part of the assessment regarding water Scarcity and Droughts will be the information on water availability, supply and abstraction. It will be based on recent updates of calculations of the Water Exploitation Index (WEI) and the data provided by member States for that Priority data flow on water quantity and development of WS&D indicators. It will in addition be based on the Water Account calculations for Europe.
