Incorporating DEM uncertainty in coastal inundation mapping. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2014
Coastal managers require reliable spatial data on the extent and timing of potential coastal inundation, particularly in a changing climate. Most sea level rise (SLR) vulnerability assessments are undertaken using the easily implemented bathtub approach, where areas adjacent to the sea and below a given elevation are mapped using a deterministic line ...

Sea Level Rise Driving Increasingly Predictable Coastal Inundation in Sydney, Australia

open access: yesEarth's Future, 2020
As global mean sea level continues to rise, thresholds corresponding to coastal inundation impacts are exceeded more frequently. This paper aims to relate sea level rise (SLR) observations and projections to their physical on‐the‐ground impacts.

A sensitivity study of rising compound coastal inundation over large flood plains in a changing climate [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Coastal flood hazards and damage to coastal communities are increasing steeply and nonlinearly due to the compound impact of intensifying tropical cyclones (TCs) and accelerating sea-level rise (SLR).

Effects of Typhoon Paths on Storm Surge and Coastal Inundation in the Pearl River Estuary, China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
A coastal inundation simulation system was developed for the coast of the Pearl River estuary (PRE), which consists of an assimilation typhoon model and the coupled ADCIRC (Advanced Circulation) + SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore) model. The assimilation

Reflections on coastal inundation, climate change impact, and adaptation in built environment: progresses and constraints

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research, 2020
Coastal inundation causes considerable impacts on communities and economies. Sea level rise due to climate change increases the occurrence of coastal flood events, creating more challenges to coastal societies. Here we intend to draw the understanding of

Integrated Inundation Modeling of Flooded Water in Coastal Cities

open access: yesApplied Sciences (Switzerland), 2019
Climate change has increased the damage caused by subtropical rainfall and typhoons in coastal areas. Major flooding factors in coastal areas can be classified as storm surges, river inundation, and inland submergence.

Evaluation of Airborne Lidar Elevation Surfaces for Propagation of Coastal Inundation: The Importance of Hydrologic Connectivity

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2015
Detailed information about coastal inundation is vital to understanding dynamic and populated areas that are impacted by storm surge and flooding. To understand these natural hazard risks, lidar elevation surfaces are frequently used to model inundation ...

Challenges and opportunities in predicting coastal total water levels from empirical runup models: Insights from major storms in Southeast Australia [PDF]

open access: yesCambridge Prisms: Coastal Futures
Total water levels (TWL) – the combination of wave-runup, tides, surges and in the future, sea-level rise – stand as a critical variable contributing to coastal inundation during storms.

The Downscaling Study for Typhoon-Induced Coastal Inundation

open access: yesWater (Switzerland), 2020
Typhoons can often cause inundation in lower coastal cities by inducing strong surges and waves. Being affected by typhoon annually, the coastal cities in South Korea are very vulnerable to typhoons. In 2016, a typhoon ‘CHABA’, with a maximum 10 min sustained wind speed of about 50 m/s and a minimum central pressure of 905 hPa, hit South Korea ...

COASTAL INUNDATION SIMULATION IN SELANGOR UTILISING GEOSPATIAL TECHNOLOGY [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2023
Coastal inundation is one of the most visible consequences of rising sea levels, affecting socioeconomics and human activities. Coastal inundation is the flooding of normally dry land. This is related to the long-term effects of rising sea levels and the
