Combining probability distributions of sea level variations and wave run-up to evaluate coastal flooding risks

<p>Tools for estimating probabilities of flooding hazards caused by the simultaneous effect of sea level and waves are needed for the secure planning of densely populated coastal areas that are strongly vulnerable to climate change. In this paper we present a method for combining location-s...
