Our paper on how population development drives coastal risks, led by Dr. Lena Reimann, was Paper of the Year of "Cambridge Prisms: Coastal Futures"! You can find it at www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Accounting for Compound Flooding Can Prevent Maladaptation—A Baltic Sea Case Study Ignoring compound flooding in adaptation planning can lead to maladaptation and increased residual risk Up from a certain threshold of river discharge, storm surge barriers can lead to an exacerb...

Not accounting for compound flooding when planning and implementing coastal adaptation may lead to an unexpected increase in (residual) risk. New study led by @sunnak.bsky.social

Our results show total saltmarsh loss for some countries by the end of the century. Mitigation of GHG is essential for reducing the rate of sea-level rise while securing accomodation space, maintaining sediment supply and active wetland restoration will be key in minimising those losses.

Large-scale loss of Mediterranean coastal marshes under rising sea levels by 2100 - Communications Earth & Environment Widespread loss of coastal marshes will occur in the Mediterranean by 2100, ranging from 8% to 92% of current extent, and even total loss in specific regions depending on climate mitigation policies, ...

Mediterranean coastal wetlands (saltmarshes) are struggling to keep pace with sea-level rise, with large losses projected under all future scenarios.
