This study offers a detailed examination of the Eupen dam's role in flood mitigation in Belgium's Vesdre valley, analysing 18 moderate and extreme flood events from 1995 to 2022. Notable aspects of the methodology include adjustments for an ungauged sub-basin and a mass-balance approach to compute the unknown outflow data from the inflow time series and reservoir level data. These 18 events evidence the dam's performance hitherto, with respect to peak discharge attenuation (9-91%), peak delay (0-68 h), outflow volume reduction (2-94%), and discharge reductions associated with various return periods (38-51%), given its multipurpose objectives. The research details how the dam's effectiveness varies with operational decisions and antecedent reservoir conditions, marking a departure from conventional studies that tend to generalize data across multiple dams and events. By focusing on individual events, the study provides insights into the nuanced interplay between dam operations and flood management, demonstrating the benefits and limitations of multi-purpose reservoirs in flood control.
