Sea level rise increases the pressure on many coastlines to retreat landwards which will lead to coastlines previously held in position through management, being allowed to retreat where this is no longer affordable or sustainable. Barrier beaches have h...

This study applies three different methods to assess the flood risk and damage from the strongest high-pressure cold front (locally known as ?Norte?) event in terms of the residual tide from 30 years (1979?2008) of data for Progreso, Yucatan. The most im...
