Flooding – current soil disposal (2020)

Description

This map shows the available storage in the soil (mm) in the current climate and at an average high groundwater level (GHG). The intensity of precipitation is expected to increase further until 2050. This applies to both summers and winters. In areas with high water levels and groundwater levels, as well as low infiltration capacity (mm/hour), rainfall generally occurs in these areas as the first flood. In areas with lower water levels and groundwater levels and high infiltration capacity, in general, water nuisance will occur less quickly due to the rapid infiltration of water into the soil and because there is more soil storage available. Soil storage on the map can be used even better in times of (extreme) rainfall, so that water pollution can be prevented elsewhere. This map provides a first insight into the spatial distribution of available soil storage, based on the calculated highest groundwater level with the National Water Model (NWM) in the current climate. The highest groundwater level is usually reached in the winter months. (See also the map GHG present in the Climate Atlas). Since the average highest groundwater level is calculated, it is therefore the ‘worst-case’ available soil storage, where groundwater levels are high. The aim of this map is to get a first picture of vulnerable and promising areas for soil recovery, as an input for integral climate sessions. Further detail is needed to quantify the severity and extent of the bottlenecks and to develop opportunities. This is particularly true for urban areas.
