The UK coast is particularly exposed to two types of destructive long-period waves generated by storm surge and landslide-initiated tsunami (Bondevik et al. 2006) which can impact coastal infrastructure with widespread damage to residential, business and transport assets. Over the last decade, the UK has suffered some of the most costly and destructive storm surges because of deep cyclonic systems originating from the North Atlantic Ocean (Jaroszweski 2015, Hooper et al. 2015, Sibley 2015). For instance, the 2013/14 storm chain in the UK claimed two deaths and caused £1.3 billon damage (Chatterton 2016). The recent increase in number and intensity of storms due to Climate Change along with increasing population growth in coastal regions means government, local authorities and insurers need to better understand the vulnerability of built assets close to the sea (Dawson 2016).

英国海岸特别容易受到风暴潮和山体滑坡引发的海啸产生的两种破坏性长周期波浪的影响（Bondevik 等，2006 年），这可能会影响沿海基础设施，对住宅、商业和运输资产造成广泛破坏。十年来，由于源自北大西洋的深层气旋系统，英国遭受了一些损失最惨重、最具破坏性的风暴潮（Jaroszweski 2015，Hooper 等人 2015，例如，2013/2014 年英国的风暴链造成两人死亡并造成 13 亿英镑的损失（Chatterton 2016）。由于气候变化以及沿海人口增长，最近风暴的数量和强度有所增加。区域意味着政府、地方当局和保险公司需要更好地了解靠近海洋的建筑资产的脆弱性（Dawson 2016）。
