average score was obtained for each type of EbA measure by computing the average
value obtained by that measure in all the plans where the measure is found, and for
all plan components.

3.3.1 What EbA Measures are Included in the Plans
and How?
In total, 44 EbA measures were found in the selected plans. Figure 3.1 illustrates the
breakdown in the seven types. As can be seen, measures c (maintaining/enhancing
urban green) and f (maintaining and managing green areas for flood retention and
water storage) are the most common ones, and are found in 85% of the selected
plans. Examples of measures c include efforts to increase green areas and neighbourhood gardens (Paris), proposals for enhancing the connectivity among existing
