2015/2016 年冬季的洪水是英国近几十年来最严重的水文事件之一。冬季的特点是连续的严重风暴,给北部和西部地区带来了极端降雨和大范围的洪水。对于英国来说,2015 年 12 月是最潮湿的月份(对于任何日历月而言),也是 1910 年以来第二个最潮湿的冬季(12 月至 2 月),同时在较短的时间尺度内建立了一些新的降雨累积记录。水文响应显着;英国北部地区出现了创纪录的最大峰值流量时期,高流量响应在空间范围、持续时间和频率方面都很显着。洪水对财产、基础设施和生计造成了严重影响。整个冬季的大部分时间,洪水不可避免地成为公众、政治和媒体关注的焦点,而且在 2013/2014 年大洪水发生仅两年后,就在变暖的世界中引发了围绕洪水管理的重大辩论。
The flooding in winter 2015/2016 was one of the most extraordinary hydrological episodes witnessed in the UK in recent decades. The winter was defined by a succession of severe storms, bringing extreme rainfall and associated widespread flooding across northern and western regions. For the UK, December 2015 was the wettest month (for any calendar month) and it was the second wettest winter (December–February) in a series from 1910, while a number of new records were established for rainfall accumulations over shorter timescales. The hydrological response was remarkable; period of record maximum peak flows were established across northern areas of the UK, and the high flow response was notable in terms of its spatial extent, duration and frequency. The flooding had severe impacts on properties, infrastructure and livelihoods. Inevitably, the flooding was at the forefront of public, political and media attention through much of the winter and, occurring only two years after the major flooding of 2013/2014, led to a significant debate around flood management in a warming world.
