Brief communication: The role of using precipitation or river discharge data when assessing global coastal compound flooding
<p>Interacting storm surges and high water runoff can cause compound flooding (CF) in low-lying coasts and river estuaries. The large-scale CF hazard has been typically studied using proxies such as the concurrence of storm surge extremes either with precipitation or with river discharge extre...
