TL;DR: In this article, a review of storm studies over the North Atlantic and northwestern Europe regarding the occurrence of potential long-term trends is presented, where trends are classified according to different geographical regions, datasets, and time periods.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the future storm surge statistics for the North Sea based on numerical modeling and found that storm surge extremes may increase along the North sea coast towards the end of this century.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on a specific example of such a delta: the Netherlands and evaluate whether the country's flood protection strategy is capable of coping with future climate conditions, focusing mainly on sea level rise.

TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of today's mean and extreme wave conditions in the North Sea and their possible future changes due to anthropogenic climate change is presented, using the wave model WAM and an ensemble of wind field data sets for four climate change realizations as driving data.

TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of the storm climate of the northeast Atlantic and the North Sea as simulated by a regional climate model for the past 44 yr is presented, and the model is capable of reproducing impactrelated storm indices such as the number of severe and moderate storms per year or the total number of storms and upper intra-annual percentiles of near surface wind speed.
