COASTAL INUNDATION SIMULATION IN SELANGOR UTILISING GEOSPATIAL TECHNOLOGY [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2023
Coastal inundation is one of the most visible consequences of rising sea levels, affecting socioeconomics and human activities. Coastal inundation is the flooding of normally dry land. This is related to the long-term effects of rising sea levels and the

Palynomorphs of brackish and marine species in cores from the freshwater Lake Sapanca, NW Turkey [PDF]

, 2010
Lake Sapanca, which is located on the Sakarya–Sapanca–İzmit corridor in NW Turkey, is a freshwater lake with numerous fish farms in its catchment. Palynological analyses including non-pollen palynomorphs of a short (38.5 cm) and a longer sediment core ...

Estimating the long-term historic evolution of exposure to flooding of coastal populations [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2015
Coastal managers face the task of assessing and managing flood risk. This requires knowledge of the area of land, the number of people, properties and other infrastructure potentially affected by floods. Such analyses are usually static; i.e.

Flood exposure in Rotterdam's unembanked areas from 1970 to 2150: sensitivities to urban development, sea level rise, and adaptation [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
Uncertainties in the rate of sea level rise, coupled with ongoing urban expansion, are a challenge for city planners designing flood risk adaptation strategies. This study quantifies flood exposure in Rotterdam's unembanked areas from 1970 to 2150.

The effect of surge on riverine flood hazard and impact in deltas globally

Environmental Research Letters, 2020
Current global riverine flood risk studies assume a constant mean sea level boundary. In reality high sea levels can propagate up a river, impede high river discharge, thus leading to elevated water levels.

Quantification of Multiple Climate Change and Human Activity Impact Factors on Flood Regimes in the Pearl River Delta of China

Advances in Meteorology, 2016
Coastal flood regimes have been irreversibly altered by both climate change and human activities. This paper aims to quantify the impacts of multiple factors on delta flood.

The Seawall Bargaining Game

Games, 2014
Agents located from downstream to upstream along an estuary and exposed to a flooding risk have to invest in facilities like a seawall (or dike). As the benefits of that local public good increase along the estuary, upstream agents have to bargain for ...

Influence factors and mechanisms of 2015–2016 extreme flood in Pearl River Basin based on the WSDI from GRACE

Journal of Hydrology: Regional Studies, 2023
Study region: Pearl River Basin (PRB) has a tropical to subtropical climate in China. Study focus: An unprecedented extreme flood broke out in PRB during 2014–2016 super El Niño period. We construct the water storage deficit index (WSDI) to quantify this

Changement climatique et dynamique géomorphologique des côtes bretonnes. Leçons pour une gestion responsable de l’imbrication des échelles spatio-temporelles

Cybergeo, 2013
In France, the strong storms of the last decades and their impacts on coasts has led to emphasize the relationships which may exist between climate change and coastal erosion and flooding.

Developing a framework for the assessment of current and future flood risk in Venice, Italy [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022
Flooding causes serious impacts on the old town of Venice, its residents, and its cultural heritage. Despite this existence-defining condition, limited scientific knowledge on flood risk of the old town of Venice is available to support decisions to ...
