Cover Story: Coastal areas are strategically significant from ecological, anthropic, and economic perspectives, but they are also susceptible to forces that cause inundations. Multiple forcings occurring in close succession in both space and time amplify the effects of a single force, forming a compound event. One example is an atmospheric disturbance that extends from the sea to the mainland, causing a sea storm and a river flood due to heavy rainfall, such as that which occurred in 2015 in Calabria, Southern Italy. This paper focuses on compound river floods and sea storms generated by atmospheric disturbances regardless of their exceptional or nontypical typology. The analysis includes their forcings, correlation, and effects, and is carried out in Calabria, which is an interesting case study due to its peculiarities, which favor the formation of compound events and increase their risk. View this paper
