The intensification of extreme events due climate change and sea-level rise are major
challenges to be urgently addressed by Europe's coastal cities. Coastal hazards have the …

Abstract Based on the Baltic Earth Assessment Reports of this thematic issue in Earth
System Dynamics and recent peer-reviewed literature, current knowledge of the effects of …

Global models of tide, storm surge, and wave setup are used to obtain projections of
episodic coastal flooding over the coming century. The models are extensively validated …

Sandy beaches occupy more than one-third of the global coastline and have high
socioeconomic value related to recreation, tourism and ecosystem services. Beaches are …

The Paris agreement focused global climate mitigation policy on limiting global warming to
1.5 or 2° C above pre-industrial levels. Consequently, projections of hazards and risk are …

Abstract Changes in coastal morphology have broad consequences for the sustainability of
coastal communities, structures and ecosystems. Although coasts are monitored locally in …

Global warming is expected to drive increasing extreme sea levels (ESLs) and flood risk
along the world's coastlines. In this work we present probabilistic projections of ESLs for the …

The African coast contains heritage sites of 'Outstanding Universal Value'that face
increasing risk from anthropogenic climate change. Here, we generated a database of 213 …

Abstract UNESCO World Heritage sites (WHS) located in coastal areas are increasingly at
risk from coastal hazards due to sea-level rise. In this study, we assess Mediterranean …

In low-lying coastal areas, the co-occurrence of high sea level and precipitation resulting in
large runoff may cause compound flooding (CF). When the two hazards interact, the …
