* Relatively simple stage-damage functions are used to estimate risks related to flood hazard and exposure. These functions vary greatly across the globe and may even represent the largest absolute uncertainty in our model results. | * Relatively simple stage-damage functions are used to estimate risks related to flood hazard and exposure.

* Flood risk is modelled as a function of flood hazard, exposure, and vulnerability, with vulnerability being assumed to remain the same over time and space. However, future developments in resilience and adaptation measures may reduce vulnerability (e.g. due to increased awareness, other building methods or flood warning procedures). | * Flood risk is modelled as a function of flood hazard, exposure, and vulnerability, with vulnerability being assumed to remain the same over time and space.
