- Title
The tide is high: a new perspective on coastal flood hazards.
- Authors
Hague, Ben S.
- Abstract
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change recently described high-tide flooding as 'the most urgent adaptation challenge' (Cooley et al. 2022, p.127) facing coastal communities. However, high-tide flooding hardly features in most Australian coastal hazard assessments. This paper outlines the key findings and implications of recent research on high-tide flooding for planners and emergency managers in Australia.
