Arctic coastal hazard assessment considering permafrost thaw subsidence, coastal erosion, and flooding
The thawing of permafrost in the Arctic has led to an increase in coastal land loss, flooding, and ground subsidence, seriously threatening civil infrastructure and coastal communities. However, a lack of tools for synthetic hazard assessment of the Arctic coast has hindered effective response measu...
