Groundwater Flooding on Atolls Caused by Storm Surges: Effects of the Dual‐Aquifer Configuration

Abstract Storm surges associated with tropical cyclones endanger atolls through groundwater flooding, where groundwater is discharged from the land surface as the sea level rises. Atolls are characterized by a “dual‐aquifer” configuration, where recent Holocene sediments unconformably overlie highly...
