Identifying and interpreting extreme rainfall events using image classification
Journal of Hydroinformatics, 2021 This study presents the first attempt to identify extreme rainfall events based on surrounding sea-level pressure anomalies, using neural network-based classification.

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.

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 ...

Changes of Extreme Sea Level in 1.5 and 2.0°C Warmer Climate Along the Coast of China
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2018 Using hourly sea level data from 15 tide gauges along the Chinese coast and sea level data of three simulations of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5), we assessed the changes and benefits of the extreme sea level of limiting ...

Atmospheric circulation changes and their impact on extreme sea levels around Australia [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2019 Projections of sea level rise (SLR) will lead to increasing coastal impacts during extreme sea level events globally; however, there is significant uncertainty around short-term coastal sea level variability and the attendant frequency and severity of ...

Changes in extreme sea-levels in the Baltic Sea [PDF]
Tellus A: Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2014 In a climate change context, changes in extreme sea-levels rather than changes in the mean are of particular interest from the coastal protection point of view. In this work, extreme sea-levels in the Baltic Sea are investigated based on daily tide gauge records for the period 1916–2005 using the annual block maxima approach.

A Mediterranean coastal database for assessing the impacts of sea-level rise and associated hazards [PDF]
, 2018 We have developed a new coastal database for the Mediterranean basin that is intended for coastal impact and adaptation assessment to sea-level rise and associated hazards on a regional scale.

An 11-year validation of wave-surge modelling in the Irish Sea, using a nested POLCOMS-WAM modelling system [PDF]
, 2010 In the future it is believed that extreme coastal flooding events will increase (in frequency and intensity) as a result of climate change. We are investigating the flood risks in the eastern Irish Sea posed by extreme storm events.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015 A North Sea storm surge during 31 January-1 February 1953 caused Northwest Europe’s most severe coastal flood in living memory. This event killed more than 2,000 people on the coasts of England, the Netherlands and Belgium.
