Our research explored the escalating risks of hurricane-induced coastal erosion under climate change. Using advanced physics-based morphodynamic modeling, we quantified the impacts of hurricane climatology changes and sea level rise on beach-dune systems along New Jersey's barrier islands. Our findings reveal substantial increases in erosion hazards, with significant spatial variability influenced by local beach-dune characteristics. This study underscores the urgent need for adaptive coastal management strategies to mitigate climate change impacts on coastal resilience. Read the full article.
