Coastal Flood Modeling Challenges in Defended Urban Backshores
Geosciences, 2018 Coastal flooding is a significant and increasing hazard. There are multiple drivers including rising coastal water levels, more intense hydrologic inputs, shoaling groundwater and urbanization.

From flood science to flood policy: The Foresight Future Flooding Project, seven years on. [PDF]
, 2013 The Foresight Future Flooding (FFF) project researched flood risk in the UK to the year 2100 for central government, using scenarios and a national risk assessment model backed by qualitative analysis from panels of some 45 senior scientists. The purpose

An Integrated Approach for the Simulation Modeling and Risk Assessment of Coastal Flooding [PDF]
, 2020 The evaluation of storm surge flood risk is vital to disaster management and planning at national, regional and local levels, particularly in coastal areas that are affected more severely by storm surges.

Carbon degradation in agricultural soils flooded with seawater after managed coastal realignment [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2017 Permanent flooding of low-lying coastal areas is a growing threat due to climate change and related sea-level rise. An increasingly common solution to protect coastal areas lying below sea level is intentional flooding by "managed coastal realignment".

Regional assessment of extreme sea levels and associated coastal flooding along the German Baltic Sea coast [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 Among the Baltic Sea littoral states, Germany is anticipated to endure considerable damage as a result of increased coastal flooding due to sea-level rise (SLR). Consequently, there is a growing demand for flood risk assessments, particularly at regional

Evaluating the Economic Cost of Coastal Flooding [PDF]
American Economic Journal: Macroeconomics, 2018 Sea level rise will cause spatial shifts in economic activity over the next 200 years. Using a spatially disaggregated, dynamic model of the world economy, this paper estimates the consequences of probabilistic projections of local sea level changes. Under an intermediate scenario of greenhouse gas emissions, permanent flooding is projected to reduce ...

MODELLING MEMORY OF COASTAL FLOOD SYSTEMS [PDF]
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2014 Flooding and coastal erosion is a frequent and widespread natural hazard in the UK. With increasing urban development pressures on flood systems and changing global climate, frequency and severity of flooding is rapidly increasing. Temporal clustering of flood events in time has a critical effect in reducing the ability of systems to recover to the pre-
