Global warming and its accompanying sea level rise will be serious issues in the future. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) , a global average sea level rise of 9cm to 88cm is projected for 1990 to 2100 and a steady increase of sea level for all of the scenarios considered is expected. In the coast regions, coast disasters caused by storm surge coupled with sea le...
متن کاملEffect of sea level extremes on the western Basque coast during the 21st century
Rising global sea level increases the vulnerability of coastal regions to storm surge flooding. The impact of extreme high waters resulting from the combination of tidal oscillations and changes in mean sea level and in storm surges during the 21st century has been explored in the Bizkaian coast (northern Spain). Mean sea level variations due to temperature changes were estimated from an ensemb...

متن کاملA CYCLONE INDUCED STORM SURGE FORECASTING MODEL FOR THE COAST OF BANGLADESH WITH APPLICATION TO THE CYCLONE `SIDR'
The coast of Bangladesh has a specialty in terms of high bending and many off- shore islands. Incorporation of the coastline and island boundaries properly in the numerical scheme is essential for accurate estimation of water levels due to surge. For that purpose a numerical scheme consisting of very fine mesh is required along the coastal belt, whereas this is unnecessary away from the coast. In...
