摘要

Compound flood has resulted in severe hazards under changing climate in coastal areas. Here, a novel transition framework integrating the Copula function and improved Markov chain is proposed for estimating the transition probability and identify different transition patterns of compound flooding events. Taking Modaomen waterway of the Pearl River as study area, results show that: (1) Bivariate probability of compound flood variates is computed by Copulas, in which Clayton Copula function is identified as the best fitting function for the bivariate joint distribution; (2) Based on the Kendall return periods, the combined thresholds for compound flooding with return periods of 5, 20, 50, and 100 years are determined through the maximum likelihood method; (3) transition probabilities matrices of multiple drivers in compound flooding are determined by Markov Chain, enhanced pattern and attenuated pattern have been identified, the compounding of storm surges and river floods exhibits the amplification pattern, while river floods and urban floods demonstrate the attenuation patterns in their interactions. This work makes a significant contribution to the advancement of early warning systems for compound flooding through its ability to forecast hazard transitions and support the prompt implementation of mitigation strategies.
