A global reanalysis of storm surges and extreme sea levels [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2016 Protection of coastlines from devastating flooding associated with sea-level extremes is impeded by a lack of continuous records. Here, the authors apply a hydrodynamic modelling approach and present the first reanalysis of tides, surges and extreme sea ...

Coastal extreme sea levels in the Caribbean Sea induced by tropical cyclones [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 Every year the Caribbean Sea faces the passage of several tropical cyclones that generate coastal extreme sea levels with potential strong and hazardous impacts.

Changes in extreme sea-levels in the Baltic Sea [PDF]
Tellus: Series 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

Complex Extreme Sea Levels Prediction Analysis: Karachi Coast Case Study [PDF]
Entropy, 2020 In this study, the analysis of the extreme sea level was carried out by using 10 years (2007–2016) of hourly tide gauge data of Karachi port station along the Pakistan coast.

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.

Extreme sea levels at different global warming levels [PDF]
Nature Climate Change, 2021 AbstractThe Paris agreement focused global climate mitigation policy on limiting global warming to 1.5 or 2 °C above pre-industrial levels. Consequently, projections of hazards and risk are increasingly framed in terms of global warming levels rather than emission scenarios.

Extreme sea levels at selected stations on the Baltic Sea coast
Oceanologia, 2014 The purpose of this article is to analyse and describe the extreme characteristics of the water levels and illustrate them as the topography of the sea surface along the whole Baltic Sea coast.

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 ...

Non-linear interaction modulates global extreme sea levels, coastal flood exposure, and impacts [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 The non-linear interaction between tide and non-tidal residual impacts current and future extreme water levels. Here, based on 620 gauge records, the authors find a large non-linear interaction in the US East Coast, North Sea and parts of southern Japan,
