Exploring the Role of Strategic Place‐Based Risk Assessment as a Framework to Support System‐Based Climate Adaptation Planning

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Climate change adaptation requires more place‐based evidence to understand the context of historic, present and future vulnerability and how this translates to local patterns of risk. This study illustrates a globally relevant framework focused on multiple and often interconnected climate risks in a major coastal lowland, the Fens region, UK ...

The Decline of a Caldera‐Filling Glacier at Volcán Sollipulli, Chile

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Southern Andean glaciers have undergone fast retreat in recent decades. This results in reduced freshwater storage, contribution to sea‐level rise, and locally to the formation of glacial lakes, that may pose the risk of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs).

A Laboratory experiment of wave overtopping over dike on steep fringing reef

Journal of Applied Science and Engineering
This paper presents a laboratory study to investigate the wave overtopping over dike on the fringing reef with a large steep fore-reef slope. The experimented models were set up in wave flume, considering three different slopes of dike combined with ...

Prediction of Mean Overtopping Discharge at Vertical Seawalls Using MLR and GLM Statistical Approaches

International Journal of Maritime Technology, 2015
Wave overtopping at breakwaters is one of their essential hydraulic characteristics when determining the design crest level. This study concentrates on developing a new practical formula on predicting wave overtopping, by implementing two different ...

Numerical Study of Wave Overtopping Based on Local Method of Approximate Particular Solution Method

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2014
In order to study the wave overtopping process, this paper establishes a two-dimensional numerical wave flume based on a meshless algorithm, local method of approximate particular solution (the LMAPS method), and the technology of momentum source wave ...

Experimental investigation of a novel adjustable-slope onshore overtopping wave energy converter for coastal protection and energy generation

Energy Conversion and Management: X
Wave Energy Converters (WECs) are increasingly being proposed for hybrid coastal infrastructure, offering both renewable energy generation and coastal protection to reduce the high Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCoE) associated with wave energy. Onshore

Numerical Simulations of the Hydraulic Performance of a Breakwater-Integrated Overtopping Wave Energy Converter

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
OBREC is the acronym that stands for Overtopping Breakwater for Energy Conversion. It is a multifunctional device aimed to produce energy from the waves, while keeping the harbour area protected from flooding.

Relations Between the Run-Up and Overtopping of Waves

Coastal Engineering 1972, 1972
The quantitative relationships among run-up, overtopping and reflection of waves are presented in this paper. In addition, the authors have proposed several empirical relationships to calculate the height of wave run-up and the quantity of wave overtopping in the region of standing waves.
