TITLE

Time-Varying Emulator of Short and Long-Term Analysis of Natural Hazards

Framework designed to create hypothetical combinations of relevant flood hazard potential processes by simulating the climate and weather patterns that drive coastal flooding.

  • Swells, Wind Waves, Tides, MMSL

  • Tropical cyclones (Surge, Waves)

  • Climate Variability

  • Emulation of Thousands of years of plausible multivariate events
