Estimation of surges and higher sea levels at the outfalls of rivers located in the fluvial sector and maritime sector (estuary and gulf) of the St. Lawrence
The results of this project will produce a better estimate of flood risks and, consequently, better mapping of flood zones for regions where water levels in the receiving environment have a significant impact on flood risks.
