The indices available on the ECDE were identified by a selected group of experts that defined publication priorities and presented in a technical report in 2020 ([ETC/CCA Technical Paper](https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/en/metadata/publications/climate-related-hazard-indices-for-europe-etc-cca-technical-paper-1-2020)). The indices were organised according to 16 hazards, grouped into 6 categories consistent with the 'climatic impact drivers' adopted in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report.
