Flooding Projections Due To Groundwater Emergence Caused by Sea Level Variability
Abstract Rising groundwater tables due to sea level rise (SLR) pose a critical but understudied threat to low‐lying coastal regions. This study uses field observations and dynamic modeling to investigate drivers of groundwater variability and to project flooding risks from emergent groundwater in Imperial Beach, California.

Water Exposure Time Distributions Controlled by Freshwater Releases in a Semi‐Enclosed Estuary
Abstract Freshwater diversions manage water shortages, salinity, and control floodwater by redirecting river flows; however, their full ecological and hydrological impact remains unknown. This study examines the Lake Pontchartrain Estuary in Louisiana using a hydrodynamic model and Lagrangian particle tracking to assess how diversion operations (open ...

Referencing regional geoid-based vertical datums to national tide gauge networks
The objective of this study is to investigate the best means for referencing a regional geoid-based vertical datum to a network of tide gauges. In this study, a network of 27 tide gauge stations scattered along the coasts of Canada are used in order to ...

Abstract The distribution and alignment of volcanism in continental rifts is controlled by regional extensional stresses modulated by several factors such as structural inheritance, volcano edifice loading, and rift architecture. These interactions result in complex characteristics of rift‐related volcanic features, which may be difficult to interpret ...

Precipitation Over Complex Mountain Terrain in a Convection‐Permitting Regional Climate Model
Abstract Orographic precipitation is a critical freshwater source and major flooding hazard, but its distribution and behavior over complex terrain are often uncertain due to sparse observations. We examine precipitation and its drivers in one of the wettest regions in the world, the Southern Alps of New Zealand (NZ), using the first multi‐decadal ...

Semi-kinematic geodetic reference frame based on the ITRF2014 for Malaysia
Malaysia is located at the stable part of the tec-tonic Sundaland platelet in SE Asia. The platelet is surrounded in almost every direction by tectonically active convergent boundaries, at which the Philippine Sea, the Australian and the Indian Plates ...

On the unification of geodetic leveling datums using satellite altimetry [PDF]
Techniques are described for determining the height of Mean Sea Level (MSL) at coastal sites from satellite altimetry. Such information is of value in the adjustment of continental leveling networks.
