recommendations! Published in 2017 at "Natural Hazards"

DOI: 10.1007/s11069-017-3001-5

Abstract: Wave action during storm surge is a common cause of building damage and therefore a critical consideration when estimating structural vulnerability and mapping flood risk. Traditional depth-damage curves, however, relate building vulnerability solely to inundation… read more here.
