DOI: 10.1016/j.gloplacha.2017.06.007
Abstract: The largest collection of tide gauge records assembled to date, called GESLA-2, has been used to provide reliable extreme sea level parameters at 655 locations around the world. This has enabled a rigorous assessment of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quascirev.2020.106571
Abstract: Abstract Along tectonically active margins, the difference in elevations between global sea levels during highstands and uplifted marine terraces is a function of both tectonics and glacial-isostatic adjustment (GIA). However, disentangling the relative influence of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/ncomms16075
Abstract: One of the main consequences of mean sea level rise (SLR) on human settlements is an increase in flood risk due to an increase in the intensity and frequency of extreme sea levels (ESL). While… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2024518118
Abstract: Significance With geological sea-level fluctuations driven by climate change, the distribution of mangrove forests has expanded and contracted through time. We studied an inland, isolated mangrove forest located 170 km away from the nearest coastline… read more here.
