Project: Coastal Flood Risk in China’s Coastal Zones
He Xu joined the group in June 2023 as a visiting student from Yantai Institute of Coastal Zone Research,Chinese Academy of Sciences, with the research focus on the spatial assessment of coastal flood risk in China Coastal Zone (CCZ) and its social-economic impacts under the compound scenarios of climate changes, namely RCP26-SSP1, RCP45-SSP2, and RCP85-SSP5, based on the hazard, exposure sensitivity, and adaptive capacity.
