Gated storm surge barriers have been constructed or proposed in many estuaries worldwide for coastal flood risk reduction.

Rising coastal flood risk and recent disasters are driving interest in the construction of gated storm surge barriers worldwide, with current studies recommending barriers for at least 11 estuaries in the United States alone.
