Urban Planning of Coastal Adaptation under Sea-Level Rise: An Agent-Based Model in the VIABLE Framework

open access: yesUrban Science, 2023
Coastal flood risk and sea-level rise require decisions on investment in coastal protection and, in some cases, the relocation of urban areas. Models that formalize the relations between flooding costs, protective investments, and relocation can improve ...

A spatially-dependent synthetic global dataset of extreme sea level events

open access: yesWeather and Climate Extremes, 2023
Current coastal flood risk assessments fail to capture flood spatial dependence at large scales. In this paper, we develop the first global synthetic dataset of spatially-dependent extreme sea level events, by applying an existing conditional ...

Changes in Sea Level along the South China Sea Coast Based on the Homogenized Tide Gauge Data

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
To estimate the changes in the annual mean sea level (MSL) and extreme sea levels (ESLs), the largest collection of tide gauge records from 10 tidal stations along the northern coast of the South China Sea (SCS) were analyzed in this study. Here, all the

Analysis on the Extreme Sea Levels Changes along the Coastline of Bohai Sea, China

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2018
Using hourly sea level data from four tide gauges, the changes of the extreme sea level in the Bohai Sea were analyzed in this work. Three components (i.e., mean sea level, tide and surge) as well as the tide–surge interaction were studied to find ...

Extreme Precipitation Events in the Mountain and sub-Mountain Areas of the Făgăraş Mountains in June 10 to 11, 2011. [PDF]

open access: yesAerul şi Apa: Componente ale Mediului, 2017
In the last decades, permanent residencies and temporary tourist dwellings have been built in the sub-mountain area of the Făgăraş Mountains, mainly in the proximity of the Olt River, being exposed to significant floods during extreme precipitation ...

Changes in the mesoscale variability and in extreme sea levels over two decades as observed by satellite altimetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A data set of precise radar altimeter sea surface heights obtained from the same 10-day repeat ground track has been analysed to determine the magnitude of change in the ocean ‘mesoscale’ variability over two decades.

Forecasting sea level maxima using Machine learning with explainability and extreme value analysis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Accurately forecasting sea level maxima (SLM) and extremes, is vital for maritime management, engineering, and navigation. Most Machine learning (ML) models focus on moderate surges and often underestimate extremes.

Sea-level extremes of meteorological origin in the Red Sea

open access: yesWeather 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.

Eclipse Ice Core Accumulation and Stable Isotope Variability as an Indicator of North Pacific Climate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The high accumulation rate and negligible amount of melt at Eclipse Icefield (3017 m) in the Saint Elias Range of Yukon, Canada, allows for the preservation of a high-resolution isotopic and glaciochemical records valuable for reconstruction of climatic ...

Global Dataset of Extreme Sea Levels and Coastal Flood Impacts over the 21st Century

open access: yesData
A global database of coastal flooding impacts resulting from extreme sea levels is developed for the present day and for the years 2050 and 2100. The database consists of three sub-datasets: the extreme sea levels, the coastal areas flooded by these ...
