The lack of reported data on environmental flood impacts may partially be attributed to knowledge gaps in the underlying mechanisms. The guidance documents for reporting under the floods directive (EC 2013a) require an update and explanation to have replies more comparable throughout Europe restressing the link with the WFD and making the link to nature policies more obvious.

The impact of socio-economic developments on future flood losses is large. The question is if these developments will be adequately accounted for in the FRMPs.
