Dynamic Storm Surge Models Crucial for Rising Sea Levels

Integrating sea-level rise with dynamic storm surge models is vital for accurate coastal flood predictions. Traditional models often underestimate impacts, especially in vulnerable regions like India. This research highlights non-linear interactions between sea levels and surges, essential for future coastal resilience.

• Dynamic models outperform static 'bathtub' models for storm surge prediction.
• Sea-level rise creates non-linear interactions with storm surges.
• Accurate modeling is critical for coastal communities facing increased flood risks.
• Coastal nations like India are highly vulnerable to exacerbated storm surges.
• Research emphasizes the importance of complex hydrodynamic and morphodynamic factors.
• ESS Open Archive is a credible platform for early scientific research outputs.
