In the context of climate change and urbanization, flood becomes one of the most important
threats to human life, health, and property. Coastal areas gathering large numbers of …

Societally relevant weather impacts typically result from compound events, which are rare
combinations of weather and climate drivers. Focussing on four event types arising from …

The cooccurrence of coastal and riverine flooding leads to compound events with
substantial impacts on people and property in low‐lying coastal areas. Climate change …

Sea-level rise amplifies the frequency of extreme sea levels by raising their baseline height.
Amplifications are often projected for arbitrary future years and benchmark frequencies …

Hydrological extremes, such as droughts and floods, can trigger a complex web of
compound and cascading impacts (CCI) due to interdependencies between coupled natural …

When elevated coastal water levels and heavy precipitation occur simultaneously or in
succession, their joint impact may be exacerbated compared to their individual occurrence …

Flood severity in cities along the Yangtze River is vulnerable to multiple influencing factors,
such as intense rainfall, higher river water level, and pump operation. This study evaluates …

Flooding is of particular concern in low-lying coastal zones that are prone to flooding
impacts from multiple drivers, such as oceanographic (storm surge and wave), fluvial …

Flood disasters in coastal cities are generally caused by the combined effect of typhoon
rainfall, storm surge and other factors. Coastal cities will face more severe compound …

Accurate delineation of compound flood hazard requires joint simulation of rainfall‐runoff
and storm surges within high‐resolution flood models, which may be computationally …
