Modelling the combined impact of sea level rise, land subsidence, and tropical cyclones in compound flooding of coastal cities

Low-lying coastal areas are threatened worldwide by compound flooding effects, including sea-level rise (SLR), frequent tropical cyclones (TCs), and accelerated land subsidence (LS). Compound flooding results in a negative effect, creating challenges for decision-making and coastal management for sustainable urban development. To comprehend...

Response of hydrogeological processes in a regional groundwater system to environmental changes: A modeling study of Yinchuan Basin, China

The sustainable development of groundwater resources in arid and semi-arid regions is a challenging task hindered by climate change and human activities. The rational utilization and management of groundwater resources is, therefore, dependent on an understanding of the influences of human and climatic factors on the spatial distribution of...
