Combination Hazard of Extreme rainfall, storm Surge & high Tide on estuarine infrastructure Nov 1, 2017 - Aug 31, 2018
UK estuaries are at risk from combination flooding. Sea-level rise and predicted changes to UK storm patterns (affecting both surge and river flows) will alter the joint probability of multiple hazard events, making previous understanding of risk, an...

Susceptibility of catchments to INTense RAinfall and flooding (Project SINATRA) Sep 1, 2013 - Feb 28, 2019
Project SINATRA responds to the NERC call for research on flooding from intense rainfall (FFIR) with a programme of focused research designed to advance general scientific understanding of the processes determining the probability, incidence, and imp...

Collaborative Research Agreement relating to Long-term Morphodynamics and Sedimentation of the Holderness Coast and Humber Estuary Feb 25, 2015 - Feb 28, 2018

Present & Future Climate Hazard/Embedded Researcher Scheme Aug 10, 2020 - Aug 9, 2022
Twenty million people living near UK estuaries are at risk from compound flooding hazards. Recent near-miss flooding in UK catchments and estuaries (Dec-2013, Jan-2017) could have been much worse with subtle changes in surge-precipitation timings, al...

The University of Hull Leverhulme Doctoral Scholarships Centre on Water Cultures Jun 1, 2021 - Sep 30, 2027
Water Cultures critically re-examines our relationships with water in the populous, but precarious, zones between land and sea. Coastal, estuary and delta regions are home to 40% of global population, and the opportunities and challenges of living wi...
