Expert perspectives on the next generation of UK surface water flood warning services

Abstract:: In a rapidly changing climate increased resilience to surface water flooding (SWF) is urgently required. In the UK responsible organisations are seeking to take bolder leadership in developing SWF forecasting and warning capabilities. A community effort is needed to identify where new data, technology and techniques offer opportunities to fill gaps in current capabilities and where the co15 development of new science is required. The paper shares perspectives on priority areas for research and development from forecasters and responders, academics, and consultants following a workshop held in Birmingham in January 2024.
