Suceava River basin is an area belonging to the Eastern Romanian Carpathians and Moldavian Plateau that is not that often affected by the negative effects of the maximum water flow, which are the floods. This article tries to present the periods when the floods had negative effects of the studied area. In the interval 1950-2010 where periods when floods were not recorded, but also periods when the negative effects were so evident, that it generated loses of human lives, damages to households and infrastructure, etc..
