|a Tens of millions of people around the world are already exposed to
coastal flooding from tropical cyclones. Global warming has the potential to increase
hurricane flooding, both by hurricane intensification and by sea level rise. In this
paper, the impact of hurricane intensification and sea level rise are evaluated using
hydrodynamic surge models and by considering the future climate projections of
the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. For the Corpus Christi, Texas,
United States study region, mean projections indicate hurricane flood elevation
(meteorologically generated storm surge plus sea level rise) will, on average, rise
by 0.3 m by the 2030s and by 0.8 m by the 2080s. For catastrophic-type hurricane
surge events, flood elevations are projected to rise by as much as 0.5 m and 1.8 m by
the 2030s and 2080s, respectively. |
