The nature of the Bellarine environment means that standard methods of coastal hazard evaluation are at times not applicable, therefore, the hazard figures must be viewed with the corresponding text to gather the best understanding of the processes operating, and the uncertainty associated with the processes and methodology. Also, a new method for the presentation of future scenarios has been undertaken linked to sea-level rise increments rather than a specific year to reduce the uncertainty related to the rates of sea-level rise and the prediction of future inundation extents. The use of sea-level rise triggers is detailed in the following sections.
