Assessing the Effects of Climate Change on Compound Flooding in Coastal River Areas

Abstract: Globally, floods are the most common natural hazard and have major economic, social, and ecological impacts on communities (CRED & UNISDR, 2015). Coastal river areas concentrate population, infrastructure, and economic activity, all of these highly vulnerable to floods (Koks et al., 2015). The effects of global warming in such already flood-prone areas raise concerns about future flood conditions, making imperative the need for reliable methods for their analysis (Seneviratne et al., 2012) and innovative appro… Show more

“…Second, the quantitative stress test framework applied in this study can be viewed as a simplified and targeted climatological-hydrodynamic approach, which is originally proposed by Lin et al (2012). To our best knowledge, this climatological-hydrodynamic methodology tends to be a standard workflow to quantify how global warming affects the compound flood hazards caused by storm surge, sea-level rise, and extreme rainfall in coastal cities (Bermúdez et al, 2021;Ganguli et al, 2020;Garner et al, 2017;Gori et al, 2022;Lin & Emanuel, 2016;Marsooli et al, 2019;Marsooli & Lin, 2020;Rezaie et al, 2021). Instead of driving the hydrodynamic model by large ensembles of synthetic TCs, which are statistically generated from reanalysis or GCM-projected future climate, our framework is based on the physically consistent storylines depicting several worst-case scenarios, making it possible to achieve the same goal but at the minimal computational cost.…”

“…Bermúdez et al. (2021) employ a continuous simulation approach that considers seasonality and correlation between different flood drivers to assess compound flood hazards in Mandeo Delta under historical and future climates. The climatological‐hydrodynamic methodology used in these studies tend to be a standard framework to explore the impact of global warming on compound flood hazards in river deltas.…”

“…These extreme events may have a negative impact on biodiversity [6], crop yields [7], human health [2] and on various other socioeconomic factors [8]. Coastal areas typically have dense populations, concentrated urban construction and developed economies that are highly vulnerable to extreme floods [9,10]. Thus, it is imperative to explore the potential changes in future flow regimes by considering both climate change and human activities under global warming and socioeconomic development to formulate adaptation and mitigation strategies, especially for coastal basins [11].…”

“…To develop an accurate future flood risk assessment, it is necessary to assess all factors related to flood hazards in the context of climate change. The vulnerability of coastal river reaches is growing due to the increasing number of extreme hydrometeorological events caused by climate change [1][2][3][4][5]. Thus, the assessment of compound flooding with respect to climate change scenarios in coastal river reaches has become more relevant.…”
