  1. Thank you! Also do we need to know these?
    *- Causes of coastal flooding:
    Severe weather: Strong winds and storms which can increase the height of waves and tides. Storm surge: A storm surge is an offshore rise of water associated with a low pressure weather system*, typically tropical cyclones. Storm surges are caused by high winds pushing on the ocean’s surface. The wind causes the water to pile up higher than the ordinary sea level.
    *A low-pressure area, low or depression, is a region where the atmospheric pressure is lower than that of surrounding locations
    Sea level rise: Coastal flooding associated with sea level rise will become a significant issue into the next 100 years.
