Incorporating climate change and morphological uncertainty into coastal change hazard assessments

Creator:

Baron, Heather M., Ruggiero, Peter, Wood, Nathan J., Harris, Erica L., Allan, Jonathan, Komar, Paul D., and Corcoran, Patrick

Abstract:

Documented and forecasted trends in rising sea levels and changes in storminess patterns have the potential to increase the frequency, magnitude, and spatial extent of coastal change hazards. To develop realistic adaptation strategies, coastal planners need information about coastal change hazards that recognizes the dynamic temporal and spatial scales of...

Assessing physical vulnerability of the coast in light of a changing climate : an integrated, multi-hazard, multi-timescale approach

Creator:

Harris, Erica L.

Abstract:

Hazards threaten coastal communities and ecosystems over a wide range of spatiotemporal scales. One of the most pressing concerns for coastal property owners, decision makers, and researchers is the uncertain role that a changing climate will have on the intensity and frequency of these hazards. The significant uncertainties associated with...
