Short summary
This high-resolution lake sediment record reveals 230 floods over 8,000 years in Western Norway. Flood regimes shifted from rainfall to snowmelt dominance around 3,100 years ago, with the last 500 years being exceptionally flood-rich. These findings show how climate and human activity shape flood risk and underscore the need for long-term archives to guide adaptation under future warming.
