The world's oceans have become more turbulent over the past 33 years, with higher waves and stronger winds, according to a new study by scientists at the University of Melbourne.
Stormier oceans could raise the likelihood of coastal flooding and exacerbate erosion, increasing the vulnerability of settlements on the coast, study author Ian Young, a professor of ocean engineering, said."There is a high probability that climate change is playing a role but exactly how this works is still not fully understood," he added.
What most people don't understand is that the actual flooding events are caused by storm surge and breaking waves associated with storms. The increased sea level just makes these events more serious and more frequent," he explained.What warmer oceans mean for the planet"There will potentially be an impact on coastal flooding and coastal erosion," he said.
