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...

Youth-led Adaptation for climate change challenges in Vietnam: social action, inter-generational and inter-cultural learning Mar 20, 2020 - Jan 31, 2022
The Challenge

Rising sea levels and the increased intensity and magnitude of precipitation linked to climate change, place the Red River Catchment in Northern Vietnam on the front line of climate emergency. Whilst intense rains, localised flooding... Read More about Youth-led Adaptation for climate change challenges in Vietnam: social action, inter-generational and inter-cultural learning.
