Om denne e-boken

Storm Surge Risks tackles the escalating threat of storm surges to coastal communities, a hazard intensified by climate change. The book explores the science behind these destructive events, their far-reaching impacts, and strategies for risk mitigation, emphasizing the need for proactive, science-informed approaches. Readers gain insights into how meteorological factors interact with ocean dynamics, and how coastal landforms influence surge propagation. The book uniquely integrates scientific rigor with practical applications, making it valuable for policymakers, coastal managers, and researchers alike.

The book is structured to build understanding progressively. It begins with the scientific principles of storm surge formation, moves to examining historical impacts and case studies, then delves into risk assessment and modeling techniques, including hydrodynamic modeling. The final section explores diverse mitigation strategies, from structural defenses to early warning systems.

By connecting storm surge risks to climate science, civil engineering, and urban planning, Storm Surge Risks broadens the discussion and strengthens proposed mitigation strategies.
