Abstract: Floods are expected to increase in frequency and magnitude on average in Europe (Alfieri et al., 2015). Therefore, hydrological dam safety may also decrease in the future, as floods are the main hydrological load in dams. In a previous study, the impact of climate change on expected maxima reservoir water levels was quantified at the Eugui Dam (Spain). However, this study focuses on the impact of climate change on the outflow discharges at the Eugui Dam (Spain), also quantifying the expected changes in direct flood losses in buildings in the Metropolitan Area of Pamplona located downstream of the dam.
