This figure illustrates the maximum typhoon wave impact on the Taiwan coast at the end of the century under the RCP 8.5 scenario. The northeastern and southeastern coastlines experience greater typhoon wave impacts, often reaching high to extremely high levels.
According to the simulation results, under the RCP 8.5 scenario, the lengths of the coastline facing different levels of typhoon wave impacts (≦3.0, 3.0-6.0, 6.0-9.0, 9.0-12.0, >12.0) in Taiwan will change individually by -0.9%, -0.2%, -1.9%, -0.7%, and +3.6% compared to the baseline.

Note: Using the RCP 8.5 warming scenario provided by TCCIP Team 1, future typhoon storm surge impact assessments are conducted under the same conditions as current typhoon paths, with an average increase of 8% (also 8% higher than current typhoon wind speeds) in typhoon intensity.
