dc.description.abstractThe Spanish Mediterranean river basin provides a good background for studying floods from documentary and bibliographical sources within the specialty of historical climatology. This study region's long history of human occupation and climatic conditions together determine a high risk of flooding. As a result, there exists an enormous amount of documentary heritage containing flood information. However, the heterogeneity of documentary sources and different approaches to classifying floods through historical documents can generate some biases and uncertainties about the quantity and quality of the available data. For this reason, this paper proposes a methodology for reconstructing historical floods based on cross-referencing documentary sources. This approach, together with additional archival work, has allowed us to increase the number of flood series for the Spanish Mediterranean coast by 17% and has generated a surprising increase of 233% in the number of flood cases detected. The data obtained have allowed us to analyze the variability of floods and their relationship with climatic and social factors from the fourteenth century to the present. Different climatic oscillations related to the Little Ice Age are detected between the 14th and 19th centuries. Additionally, we detected a strong influence of the defense infrastructures and urban growth, which explain the recent flood trends. However, the difficulty in analyzing the influence of social factors on long-term flood behavior invites us to reflect on the need for further work for emphasizing these issues.

dc.subject.amshand, the large infrastructural defense structures againstfloods havecaused a decrease in the risk offlooding in some locations, whichmaterializes as decreases in both the number of events and the affectedpopulation. On the other hand, a disturbing rise in the frequency ofextraordinaryfloods has occurred in coastal locations since the mid-19th century to the present. This increase becomes magnified if weconsider the population exposed toflooding. In other words, there hasbeen a notable increase in the population affected by extraordinaryfloods. Without proper planning, the scenario for coastal populationswill be difficult when adapting to the risk offlooding.Author contributionsMB prepared most offlood series for Catalonia and improved uponpreviousflood series for the area. In addition, he handled the databaseorganization, statistical treatment, graphic production, the coordina-tion and integration of texts, and preparation of the tables andfigs.SG-G prepared theflood series for the cities of Murcia and Caravaca.He also contributed a social factor analysis for allflood chronologies.DP lent support in preparingflood data series and conducting ameteorological assessment to defineflood cases andflood events. Herevised the entire redaction and integration process of the manuscript,as well as afinal revision of the whole text.JT contributed to preparing the Segre and Ebroflood data series, aswell as the cartographic basis.AP-M contributed to preparing theflood series for the cities ofMurcia and Caravaca.AA prepared theflood series for the cities of Valencia and Alzira.JC prepared theflood series for Tortosa city. He also verified andimproved on the data for the Segre-Ebrofluvial system.JCB prepared theflood series for Zaragoza city and improved theSegre chronologies.XC collaborated with JCB for the Zaragoza cityflood series and theSegre chronologies.JM collaborated with DP on the meteorological assessment.JLR-B collaborated with JCB on theflood series for Zaragoza city.AcknowledgementsThis work has been partially supported by the Spanish Ministry ofEconomy and Innovation (CGL2016-75996-R).
