Thames Estuary 2100 Flood Storage areas

Thames Estuary flood storage areas are potential areas of riverside with the primary purpose to receive and store tidal flood flows during large storm surge events. They aim to help reduce extreme flood levels and prevent flooding further upstream. There are four potential flood storage areas which were first identified in the TE2100 Plan (2012).

泰晤士河口蓄洪区是一类具备核心功能的潜在滨江区域，其主要用途为在强风暴潮事件期间承接并储存潮汐洪水流。该类区域旨在助力降低极端洪水位，防止上游区域发生洪涝灾害。目前已明确四类潜在蓄洪区，上述区域最早于2012年发布的《TE2100规划》中被首次甄别确定。归属声明：© 英国环境署（Environment Agency）版权及/或数据库权益2023。保留所有权利。
