A hybrid statistical–dynamical framework for compound coastal flooding analysis
Environmental Research LettersCompound coastal flooding due to astronomic, atmospheric, oceanographic, and hydrologic drivers poses severe threats to coastal communities. While physics-driven approaches are able to dynamically simulate temporally and spatially varying compound ...

Low‐Intensity Precipitation Dominates Peninsular Spain (1961–2022)
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Spatial analysis across Spain shows a shift in precipitation regimes (1961–2022) toward more frequent low‐intensity precipitation and reduced high‐intensity events, with localised increases in heavy precipitation along some coastal areas. This redistribution—captured through changes in precipitation frequency (RF) and volumetric contribution (RC ...

COASTAL FLOODING, EROSION, AND SEA-LEVEL RISE THREATEN SMALL-ISLAND GROUNDWATER RESOURCES IN A CHANGING CLIMATE [PDF]
Dense human populations and productive ecosystems on small islands disproportionately rely on groundwater to meet their freshwater needs because fresh surface water is limited.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Extreme precipitation trends detected in Paraná, Southern Brazil (1983–2024), are strongly conditioned by the dataset used, with reanalyses indicating coherent inland drying and longer dry spells, observations retaining stronger mesoscale heterogeneity, and satellite products often showing declines in short‐duration extremes. Monthly diagnostics reveal

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Glacial Lake Fraser, which formed in British Columbia against the retreating Cordilleran Ice Sheet, stored ~520 km3 of water before its near‐total drainage into the Salish Sea during an outburst flood event. Despite the impact of the outburst flood on sediment transport and landscape evolution in the Fraser River valley, its peak discharge and

Economic strategies for coastal disaster risk reduction: A case study of Exmouth, Western Australia [PDF]
, 2012 Recent major natural disasters in Australia have highlighted how some of the economic costs of living in risk-prone areas are borne by the rest of society.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Glaciokarst landscapes pose distinctive challenges for cosmogenic dating because meltwater and runoff can be rapidly rerouted into ponors and conduit networks, weakening glacier–river coupling and promoting local sediment storage. We reconstruct glacier retreat and postglacial stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (SW Slovenia) using in situ ...
