Indeed, evidence from the EcoCities project suggests that flooding has been the most prominent hazard facing GM over recent decades, and that surface water flooding is superseding fluvial flooding (from main rivers) as the most common type of event (Carter and Lawson 2011). Indeed, pluvial flooding now dominates, accounting for 50% of all floods since 1994Within the GM Critical infrastructure risk assessment, which looked at 2050’s high GHG emissions scenario for GM’s Mersey Basin zone. Change is from 1961-1990 at 90th percentile) for this GM climate Zones (defined under the Ecocities project, Cavan 2010), under this emissions scenario, we expect the following hazard increases which will intensify the pluvial / flash flood risk by:Precipitation on wettest day in winter: + 31%- Precipitation on wettest day in summer: + 19%- Winter mean precipitation: +28%- Annual mean precipitation: +9% In addition to the damage flooding causes to buildings and infrastructure, flooding also brings knock-on secondary impacts which must be recognised. One example is the effect of flood damage to people’s homes, and the subsequent psychological stress that this can cause flood victims. |

There could be risk to health due to dangers of high winds. This could be compounded by disruption to the wider energy and ICT networks. This, alongside combinations of high wind events with higher rainfall could see this hazard impact combine with more frequent and higher risk fluvial and pluvial flood risks identified above. |

Indeed, evidence from the EcoCities project suggests that flooding has been the most prominent hazard facing GM over recent decades, and that surface water flooding is superseding fluvial flooding (from main rivers) as the most common type of event (Carter and Lawson 2011). Although fluvial flooding is relatively uncommon in GM, given the location of key assets and infrastructures within Flood Zones and the high consequences of related impacts should they occur, the associated risks remain high. Indeed GM is already seeing an intensification in htis fluvial flood hazard. With 17 river flood events in the 1945-1969 period rising to 27 in the 1994-2017 period. Again this is a hazard GM projects to increase in intensity and risk.

Unusually warm temperatures we encounter occasionally today could become the norm in the future and days with record temperatures above those experienced historically will also become more frequent. All days between February to May could have maximum temperatures above 34.1°C. Due to the high levels of humidity, such projected temperature rises could lead to an increase in thermal discomfort. |

An increase in temperature is expected to reduce the duration of development of vectors/pests, such that there will be an increase in population that leads to high transmission all year round or increased force of infection. Moreover, the biting rate of mosquitoes is expected to increase while the replication time of pathogens is expected to shorten. Thus, this would lead to an increase in transmission of vector-borne disease, in particular dengue. Finally, there is also an increased risk of new pathogen(s) being established under a hotter climate. The study has also projected that there is an increasing trend in rainfall, particularly during the wetter season. An increase in intermittent rainfall may create more mosquito larval habitats and increase mosquito population. |
