A study from researchers at Techn has revealed that many coastal regions around the world are becoming increasingly susceptible to flooding.
The research indicates that land subsidence, or the sinking of land masses, is significantly exacerbating the impacts of rising sea levels.
As these phenomena converge, densely populated areas may face heightened risks, necessitating urgent attention and action to mitigate potential flooding hazards.
