433Funchal50681PortugalFunchal2015Frequent/Intense RainfallExtremely seriousShort-termDue to the geographical location, Madeira Island is usually associated with an active cold front that frequently leads to heavy rainfalls. In the last years, the Island, in particular the municipalities located in the Southern área like Funchal were deeply affected by floods (1993 and most recently, in 2010). The floods and mudslides were the result of an extreme weather event that, in some places, dropped more than double the monthly average of rainfall in a very short period.(32.666933°, -16.924055°)(39.399872°, -8.224454°)
434Funchal50681PortugalFunchal2015OtherSeriousCurrentThere is a geographical correspondence between the incidence of damaging landslides and floods and associated human activity on Madeira. In fact, the increase in landslides and floods occurs mainly in the áreas with intensified human activity, particularly in the southeastern sector which has the lowest rainfalls and the most human activity. Much of the impact of human activity in the form of land cover changes, diversion of surfasse runoff, and related variations in staturated ans unsaturated layer conditions have increased the sensitivity of the surface layer to triggering factos (rainfall), producing a related geomorphic response (landslides and floods).(32.666933°, -16.924055°)(39.399872°, -8.224454°)
435Funchal50681PortugalFunchal2015Temperature Increase/HeatwavesExtremely seriousCurrentFires are usually a common occurrence in Funchal during summer. Due to the generally hot temperature, they pose a great risk to life and infrastructure, though mostly throughout the hotter months of summer. These fires can cause extensive damage, both to property and human life. Additionaly, it has a negative ecological effect. The fires also enhances the risk the flooding.(32.666933°, -16.924055°)(39.399872°, -8.224454°)
