Climate change is driving a fundamental reorganization of the coastal zone, in which carbon-
rich ecosystems are simultaneously migrating, accreting and submerging. In this Review, we …

Coastal settlements are experiencing the effects of climate change‐induced sea‐level rise,
including a significant but often poorly‐characterized impact on groundwater. The shallow …

Elevation data are fundamental to many applications, especially in geosciences. The latest
global elevation data contains forest and building artifacts that limit its usefulness for …

Most estimates of global mean sea-level rise this century fall below 2 m. This quantity is
comparable to the positive vertical bias of the principle digital elevation model (DEM) used …

Freely available global digital elevation models (DEMs) are important inputs for many
research fields and applications. During the last decade, several global DEMs have been …

Coastal flood risk assessments require accurate land elevation data. Those to date existed
only for limited parts of the world, which has resulted in high uncertainty in projections of …

Deltas are low-relief landforms that are extremely vulnerable to sea-level rise. Impact
assessments of relative sea-level rise in deltas primarily depend on elevation data accuracy …

Abstract Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) play a critical role in hydrologic and hydraulic
modeling. Flood inundation mapping is highly dependent on the accuracy of DEMs. Various …

Widely available LiDAR point clouds show that the Copernicus digital elevation model
(DEM) consistently outperforms four other 1ʺ (arc second) global DEMs (ALOS, ASTER …

Digital elevation models (DEMs) derived from remote sensing data provide a valuable and
consistent data source for mapping coastal flooding at local and global scales. Mapping of …
