Coastal managers face the task of assessing and managing flood risk. This requires knowledge of the area of land, the number of people, properties and other infrastructure
potentially affected by floods. Such analyses are usually static; i.e. they only consider a snapshot of the current situation. This misses the opportunity to learn about the role
of key drivers of historical changes in flood risk, such as development and population rise in the coastal flood plain and sea-level rise.
