| 1 | Also, it is only relatively recently that models have been developed with the required resolution to sufficiently capture the storms and weather patterns associated with the Autumn 2000 floods. | |
| 2 | Also, because the Autumn 2000 flood event was in itself extreme this further necessitates running a large number of simulations before we might expect to reproduce an event of that magnitude. | |
| 3 | We focus particularly on the United Kingdom Autumn 2000 floods because, aside from causing widespread damage, they occurred during the wettest autumn since records began in 1766. |
