- This online chronology is the first record of UK flash flood events; previous chronologies concentrated on fluvial floods. It provides detailed information on events for the last 300 years for UK regions; used by the Environment Agency for flood risk assessment. With potential for more effective spending on surface water flood management, design of sewer systems, and sustainable drainage systems by enabling reconstruction of historical flood levels. Won best paper award Journal of Flood Risk Management (2019). Recently used for new estimates of probable maximum flood (PMF) and precipitation (PMP) (https://tinyurl.com/4vwap76u)
