The UK has a long history of coastal flooding, driven by large-scale low-pressure weather systems which can result in flooding over large spatial areas. Traditional coastal flood risk analysis is, however, often undertaken at local scales and hence d...

Methodology to assess coastal infrastructure resilience to climate change (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Roca, M., Hames, D., Gouldby, B., Zve, E., Rowlands, O., Barter, P., & Grew, J. (2016). Methodology to assess coastal infrastructure resilience to climate change. In 3rd European Conference on Flood Risk Management. https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20160702004

The section of railway which runs along the coastline of south Devon in United Kingdom, from Exeter to Newton Abbot, is one of the most photographed sections of railway in the world. It was opened in 1846 with embankments and seawalls protecting and... Read More about Methodology to assess coastal infrastructure resilience to climate change.

National scale multivariate extreme value modelling of waves, winds and sea levels (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Gouldby, B., Wyncoll, D., Panzeri, M., Franklin, M., Hunt, T., Tozer, N., …Hawkes, P. (2016). National scale multivariate extreme value modelling of waves, winds and sea levels. In 3rd European Conference on Flood Risk Management. https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20160701007

It has long been recognised that extreme coastal flooding can arise from the joint occurrence of extreme waves, winds and sea levels. The standard simplified joint probability approach used in England and Wales can result in an underestimation of flo...
