The analysis of the IPCC AR6 WGI (2021) and WGII (2022) reports reveals that compound weather and climate events and risks (CE) mainly affect Oceania and Africa, and that the cascading impacts (CI) of climate change are particularly severe in the Arctic. Coastal and urban areas are the most cited archetypes in regard to CE and CI in these reports.

Lagrangian Acceleration as a Diagnostic for Wave Breaking in the Nearshore Zone
Abstract This study focuses on evaluating the Lagrangian downward acceleration of fluid particles near the wavecrest as a dynamic criterion for identification of wave breaking in shallow water. The use of the downward acceleration as an indicator for wave breaking goes back to the work of Longuet‐Higgins (1963), https://doi.org/10.1017 ...

Abstract Soft cliffed coasts are particularly vulnerable to erosion and their retreat depends on environmental, geological and geomechanical factors. In this work, we use a mathematical modeling approach to understand effects of future global sea level rise on these coasts over multiple centuries.

Effectiveness of Ecosystem‐Based Coastal Defenses Against Flooding
Abstract Coastal flooding is growing substantially as storms increase and sea levels rise rapidly due to climate change. It is therefore important to find safe and sustainable ways to protect coastal communities against this growing risk. However, the effectiveness of traditional coastal defenses (hard seawalls) (HS) is being questioned due to concerns
