Empirical Predictions on Wave Overtopping for Overtopping Wave Energy Converters: A Systematic Review

open access: yesProcesses
Over the past three decades, the development and testing of various overtopping wave energy converters (OWECs) have highlighted the importance of accurate wave run-up and overtopping predictions on those devices. This study systematically reviews the empirical formulas traditionally used for predicting overtopping across different types of breakwaters ...

Systematic Evaluation and Correction of Extreme Water Level in Global Storm Surge Simulation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Extreme sea levels resulting from storm surges are a major contributor to coastal flood risk and are often assessed using outputs from global storm surge models. However, these models exhibit systematic errors, particularly in data‐sparse regions. Here, we present a novel framework to improve simulated extreme water levels.

Experiment study on overtopping of sloping breakwater by swell [PDF]

open access: yes
Along with global climate changing, the disaster caused by overtopping from breakwater or revetment seems further serious. There are many factors which related with wave overtopping flux, one is wave period, some researches have big gap on it.

Meta‐Analysis of Industry Incident Reports: Identifying Gaps in Climate‐Related Safety Risks

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2026.
Climate‐related hazards like floods, storms, and heatwaves are increasing, raising concerns for industrial safety. When such events trigger technological failures (NATECH incidents), consequences can be severe, particularly in chemical and energy sectors. A PRISMA and bowtie‐based meta‐analysis of 50 climate‐linked incidents from the US Chemical Safety
