Sea-level extremes of meteorological origin in the Red Sea
Weather and Climate Extremes, 2022 Severe weather events and the resulting sea-level extremes are considered among the greatest threats to coastal environments. Understanding this coastal hazard is vital for various coastal developments and planning activities. This study examines the sea-level extremes of meteorological origin in the Red Sea.

Extreme sea levels along coastal China: uncertainties and implications [PDF]
Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment, 2021 AbstractExtreme sea levels (ESLs) due to typhoon-induced storm surge threaten the societal security of densely populated coastal China. Uncertainty in extreme value analysis (EVA) for ESL estimation has large implications for coastal communities’ adaptation to natural hazards.

National assessment of extreme sea-level driven inundation under rising sea levels
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023 Episodic inundation from extreme sea-levels (ESLs) will have increasing social and economic impacts in response to relative sea level rise (RSLR). Despite the improved global understanding of ESL frequencies and magnitudes, detailed nationwide inundation

Evaluation of sea level rise and associated responses in Hangzhou Bay from 1978 to 2017
Advances in Climate Change Research, 2018 The mean sea level, extreme sea level, and astronomical tide in Hangzhou Bay were analyzed using the tide gage data from 1978 to 2017 in Tanxu station, and the effects of rising sea levels on floods were estimated.

Drivers of high-frequency extreme sea levels around northern Europe – synergies between recurrent neural networks and random forest [PDF]
Ocean ScienceNorthern Europe is particularly vulnerable to extreme sea level events as most of its large population and financial and logistical centres are located by the coastline. Policy-makers need information to plan for near- and longer-term events.

Coastal extreme sea levels in the Caribbean Sea induced by tropical cyclones
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Abstract. Every year the Caribbean Sea faces the passage of several tropical cyclones that generate coastal extreme sea levels with potential strong and hazardous impacts. In this work we simulate the storm surges and wind waves induced by a set of 1000 tropical cyclones over the Caribbean Sea that are representative of the present-day climate.

Extreme-coastal-water-level estimation and projection: a comparison of statistical methods [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Accurate estimates of the probability of extreme sea levels are pivotal for assessing risk and for designing coastal defense structures. This probability is typically estimated by modeling observed sea-level records using one of a few statistical ...
