Storm surge, seawater flooding, and sea-level rise paradoxically drive fresh surface water expansion

Environmental Research Letters
Coastal storms and sea-level rise (SLR) are expected to increase seawater flooding in low-elevation coastal zones. High sea levels and seawater flooding can drive groundwater table rise via ocean-aquifer connections.
