英文摘要 | Rising sea levels have increased flood risk in coastal communities on both the east and west coasts of the USA. The goal of this analysis is to approximate flood defense costs from cyclonic flooding as a partial means to evaluate the resilience of coastal communities. Storm surge models were previously constructed via an established approach to represent historical and future coastal Louisiana landscapes and associated flood patterns. Coastal flooding was also previously simulated via a suite of 14 hurricanes. Approximate levee heights surrounding Lafitte, Louisiana, are calculated from the surge and wave output of Hurricane Isaac, the predominated hurricane in the Lafitte area for all years examined (NAVD88, m): 1.68 (1930), 2.92 (1970), 3.30 (1990), 4.82 (2010), 5.93 (2030), 6.57 (2050), 7.16 (2070), 7.70 (2090), and 8.22 (2110). Approximate costs per person are also calculated (2010 USD): $49,500 (1930), $41,400 (1970), $37,500 (1990), $181,600 (2010), $223,600 (2030), $247,800 (2050), $269,900 (2070), $290,100 (2090), and $309,800 (2110). The Gulf of Mexico (GOM) migrated 7.4 km inland within the Louisiana Barataria coastal basin between 1973 and 2010. For each person in Lafitte, flood defense costs increased approximately (2010 USD) $19,000 per person per kilometer inland migration of the GOM from 1973 to 2010. The methodology developed in this case study effectively connects wetland loss with increased flood defense costs and can be applied to communities with similar challenges. © 2020, Springer Nature B.V. |
