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

Risky Cities: Living with water in an uncertain future climate Aug 1, 2020 - Nov 30, 2023
https://riskycities.hull.ac.uk/

Estuarine and coastal cities are acutely vulnerable in the face of climate uncertainty. 40% of the world's population lives within 100km of the sea and coastal populations are directly at risk from rising sea levels... Read More about Risky Cities: Living with water in an uncertain future climate.

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...
