A century of sea level data and the UK's 2013/14 storm surges: an assessment of extremes and clustering using the Newlyn tide gauge record [PDF]
, 2014 For the UK's longest and most complete sea level record (Newlyn), we assess extreme high waters and their temporal clustering; prompted by the 2013/2014 winter of storms and flooding. These are set into context against this almost 100-year record.

Evidence for Increasing Frequency of Extreme Coastal Sea Levels
Frontiers in Climate, 2022 Projections of extreme sea levels (ESLs) are critical for managing coastal risks, but are made complicated by deep uncertainties. One key uncertainty is the choice of model structure used to estimate coastal hazards.

Changes in extreme high water levels based on a quasi-global tide-gauge data set [PDF]
, 2010 A quasi-global sea level data set from tide gauges has been used to investigate extreme sea level events and their spatial and temporal variabilities. Modern methods based on a nonstationary extreme value analysis have been applied to the maxima of the ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Due to their choked geometry, coastal lagoons can attenuate extreme water levels compared to the open sea. However, this protective property is expected to decrease due to sea‐level rise. By studying idealized lagoons in a non‐dimensional parameter space,

Sea level extremes at the coasts of China [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2014 Hourly sea level records from 1954 to 2012 at 20 tide gauges at and adjacent to the Chinese coasts are used to analyze extremes in sea level and in tidal residual. Tides and tropical cyclones determine the spatial distribution of sea level maxima. Tidal residual maxima are predominantly determined by tropical cyclones. The 50 year return level is found

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 ...

Australian Coastal Flooding Trends and Forcing Factors
Earth's Future, 2022 Using the new Australian National Collection of Homogenized Observations of Relative Sea Level (ANCHORS) dataset, we assess trends in Australian relative sea levels over recent decades and subsequent coastal flooding impacts.
