Coevolution of Extreme Sea Levels and Sea‐Level Rise Under Global Warming
Earth's Future, 2023 Design of coastal defense structures like seawalls and breakwaters can no longer be based on stationarity assumption. In many parts of the world, an anticipated sea‐level rise (SLR) due to climate change will constitute present‐day extreme sea levels ...

Importance of non-stationary analysis for assessing extreme sea levels under sea level rise [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Increased coastal flooding caused by extreme sea levels (ESLs) is one of the major hazards related to sea level rise. Estimates of return levels obtained under the framework provided by extreme-event theory might be biased under climatic non-stationarity.

Reconstructing hourly coastal total sea levels and assessing current and future extreme sea levels threats to the Coast of China [PDF]
Scientific ReportsClimate-driven sea level rise (SLR) will intensify extreme sea level (ESL) events along China’s coast. This study reconstructs continuous hourly total sea level (TSL) by incorporating SLA, tide, storm surge, and wave components, addressing the sparse ...

Projected 21st Century Sea-Level Changes, Observed Sea Level Extremes, and Sea Level Allowances for Norway [PDF]
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2017 Changes to mean sea level and/or sea level extremes (e.g., storm surges) will lead to changes in coastal impacts. These changes represent a changing exposure or risk to our society.

Acceleration of the Extreme Sea Level Rise Along the Chinese Coast
Earth and Space Science, 2019 Using high‐frequency tide gauge observations from 1980 to 2017, we analyzed changes in extreme sea levels (ESLs) along the Chinese coast to examine whether extreme sea‐level rise acceleration could be observed.

Characteristics of cyclones causing extreme sea levels in the northern Baltic Sea
Oceanologia, 2014 The basic parameters of extra-tropical cyclones in the northern Baltic are examined in relation to extreme sea level events at Estonian coastal stations between 1948 and 2010.

Numerical Modeling of Extreme Sea Levels on the Laptev Sea Coast
GeosciencesThe present study is devoted to the analysis of extreme sea level oscillations of the Laptev Sea using the ADCIRC model. The numerical modeling is performed on a high-resolution grid and verified for sea level observations from three tide gauges. We have

Uncertainties and discrepancies in the representation of recent storm surges in a non-tidal semi-enclosed basin: a hindcast ensemble for the Baltic Sea [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2023 Extreme sea level events, such as storm surges, pose a threat to coastlines around the globe. Many tide gauges have been measuring the sea level and recording these extreme events for decades, some for over a century.

Accounting for seasonality in extreme sea-level estimation [PDF]
The Annals of Applied Statistics, 2023 Reliable estimates of sea level return levels are crucial for coastal flooding risk assessments and for coastal flood defence design. We describe a novel method for estimating extreme sea levels that is the first to capture seasonality, interannual variations and longer term changes. We use a joint probabilities method, with skew surge and peak tide as
