在2018年秋季AGU会议期间组织了两场会议，题为：(1)沿海对极端事件的反应：对潮汐、洪水和地形动力学的模型预测的保真度；(2)改进观测和建模技能，以了解飓风和冬季风暴引发的潮汐和流星雨。这些会议的重点是审查自然灾害对全世界河口和沿海地区的影响，包括大西洋西北部和太平洋西北部的岛屿和大陆。主要的研究兴趣是利用数值模式和热带和温带气旋期间的观测，研究风暴潮、沿海淹没、海浪、潮汐、海流、海表面温度、风暴淹没和海岸形态的区域动力学。河口、海岸和陆架科学“河口和海岸自然灾害”特刊(SI)是在这两届会议上介绍的讨论成果。考虑了五个主题(风暴对波浪动力学的影响；潮汐和风暴潮模拟；台风期间的波流相互作用；海浪对风暴潮和水动力学的影响；对台风的水动力和地形动力学反应)，可以说反映了研究人员和政策制定者最感兴趣的领域。这篇发表在SI上的文章摘要使我们能够从不同的物理方面更好地了解自然灾害(例如风暴潮、极端海浪和风暴引发的洪水)的动力学。SI中的讨论探索了未来的维度，以理解极端风事件期间近岸和海浪带在高空间分辨率下具有完全耦合的风-浪-流-地形相互作用的数值模式。此外，有必要设计包含风暴潮和沿海洪水气候变化预测(海平面上升和全球变暖温度)的数值模型，以便更准确地制定沿海地区管理计划。
Two sessions were organized during the 2018 Fall AGU Meeting entitled, (1) Coastal Response to Extreme Events: Fidelity of Model Predictions of Surge, Inundation, and Morphodynamics and (2) Improved Observational and Modeling Skills to Understand the Hurricane and Winter Storm Induced Surge and Meteotsunami. The focus of these sessions was on examining the impact of natural disasters on estuarine and coastal regions worldwide, including the islands and mainland in the northwestern Atlantic and the northwestern Pacific. The key research interests are the investigations on the regional dynamics of storm surges, coastal inundations, waves, tides, currents, sea surface temperatures, storm inundations and coastal morphology using both numerical models and observations during tropical and extratropical cyclones. This Special Issue (SI) ‘Estuarine and coastal natural hazards’ inEstuarine Coastal and Shelf Scienceis an outcome of the talks presented at these two sessions. Five themes are considered (effects of storms of wave dynamics; tide and storm surge simulations; wave-current interaction during typhoons; wave effects on storm surges and hydrodynamics; hydrodynamic and morphodynamic responses to typhoons), arguably reflecting areas of greatest interest to researchers and policy makers. This synopsis of the articles published in the SI allows us to obtain a better understanding of the dynamics of natural hazards (e.g., storm surges, extreme waves, and storm induced inundation) from various physical aspects. The discussion in the SI explores future dimensions to comprehend numerical models with fully coupled wind-wave-current-morphology interactions at high spatial resolutions in the nearshore and surf zone during extreme wind events. In addition, it would be worthwhile to design numerical models incorporating climate change projections (sea level rise and global warming temperatures) for storm surges and coastal inundations to allow more precisely informed coastal zone management plans.
