Influence of ENSO on extreme precipitation and peak river flow in the US Open
Flooding in the US results in billions of dollars of losses every year. This is projected to increase further in many regions as the climate warms, due to a combination of more frequent and severe extreme rainfall events, with resulting im…

Contrasting changes in extreme rainfall and river flow as global mean temperature increases Open
Air can hold more moisture as temperature increases, leading to more extreme rainfall events. Yet, this does not necessarily result in larger river floods. Here we use model projections to explore differences in the response of the atmosph…

A new framework for building global flood models for the present day and future climates Open
In recent years there have been many new global datasets and methodological advancements that could be utilised by hydraulic models to help better understand global flood risk both in the present day and in the future. A major challenge fa…

A 30 m resolution global fluvial–pluvial–coastal flood inundation model for any climate scenario Open
The past decade has seen considerable advances in the field of global flood modelling. In the 2010s, it began as a niche academic endeavour building models of the order 103 m horizontal resolution. In the 2020s, it is maturing into an esta…

Estimating tropical cyclone rainfall using the STORM dataset Open
<p>Tropical Cyclones (TCs) are associated with multiple hazards both during and after landfall, including coastal flooding from storm surges, inland flooding due to heavy rainfall, and wind damage, all of which can result in loss of …
