Exploring high-end scenarios for local sea level rise to develop flood protection strategies for a low-lying delta-the Netherlands as an example [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Sea level rise, especially combined with possible changes in storm surges and increased river discharge resulting from climate change, poses a major threat in low-lying river deltas.

Coastal Wetland Resilience, Accelerated Sea‐Level Rise, and the Importance of Timescale

open access: yesAGU Advances, 2021
Recent studies have produced conflicting results as to whether coastal wetlands can keep up with present‐day and future sea‐level rise. The stratigraphic record shows that threshold rates for coastal wetland submergence or retreat are lower than what ...

Sea level rise [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
This Section addresses three questions: Has global-mean sea level been rising during the last 100 years? What are the causal factors that could explain a past rise in sea level? And what increases in sea level can be expected in the future?

From flood forecasts to rapid assessments of risk and impacts: Establishing operational modelling frameworks for coastal flood management at the German Baltic Sea coast

open access: yesCambridge Prisms: Coastal Futures
The record storm surge of October 2023, which hit the southwestern German Baltic Sea, not only resulted in significant damages to coastal communities and infrastructure but also demonstrated that the region was prepared and able to avoid loss of lives ...
