Recent findings indicate that tidal pulses significantly influence inland river systems, extending their effects beyond coastal regions.
The research identifies specific sections of rivers that are particularly vulnerable to increased flooding due to these tidal fluctuations.
This study represents the first comprehensive mapping of the tidal impacts on river systems, providing valuable insights for infrastructure planning and flood management.
