Climate change exacerbates hurricane flood hazards along US Atlantic and Gulf Coasts in spatially varying patterns

One of the most destructive natural hazards, tropical cyclone (TC)–induced coastal flooding, will worsen under climate change. Here we conduct climatology–hydrodynamic modeling to quantify the effects of sea level rise (SLR) and TC climatology change (under RCP 8.5) on late 21st century flood hazard...
