River ice controls permafrost bank erosion across an Arctic delta
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 50, Issue 15, December 2025.Massive fields of river ice occupy rivers in the Arctic Coastal Plain, where floodplains are frozen and river banks can rapidly thaw and collapse. We show that river ice accumulations can exacerbate permafrost river bank erosion in infrequently occupied parts of a delta, influencing permafrost thaw and river morphology.

Meteorological Tsunamis: From Local Hazard to Global Relevance
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract Research on meteorological tsunamis or meteotsunamis—long ocean waves in the tsunami frequency band generated by propagating atmospheric disturbances which resonantly enhance ocean waves—has grown significantly in recent decades. This expansion is due to progress in (a) ocean and atmospheric measurements, including advanced instrumentation ...

An 11-year validation of wave-surge modelling in the Irish Sea, using a nested POLCOMS-WAM modelling system [PDF]
, 2010 In the future it is believed that extreme coastal flooding events will increase (in frequency and intensity) as a result of climate change. We are investigating the flood risks in the eastern Irish Sea posed by extreme storm events.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Landslide‐generated tsunamis represent a significant hazard, specifically in coastal, fjord, and lake environments. The accurate modeling of these complicated phenomena is crucial for risk assessment and preparation of mitigation strategies.

An analytical model for bore-driven run-up [PDF]
, 2008 We use a hodograph transformation and a boundary integral method to derive a new analytical solution to the shallow-water equations describing bore-generated run-up on a plane beach.
