Short summary
We examined how a marine heatwave - period of unusually warm ocean conditions - affected flooding and coastal erosion during a storm in northwest Europe. Using a state-of-the-art regional coupled model at km-scale, we compared simulations with and without the marine heatwave to isolate its effects on the storm hazards. Warmer shallow seas intensified rainfall, winds and surface depression of the storm, which integrated into larger increases of surge, wave power and river flows.
