Predicting wave overtopping thresholds on coral reef-island shorelines with future sea-level rise

Sea-level rise will exacerbate wave overtopping on low-lying coral reef islands. Here the authors present a novel method that quantifies wave overtopping thresholds and associated reef-island vulnerability trajectories based on differences in local wave climate, reef morphology and island height.
