Probabilistic coastal vulnerability assessment to storms at regional scale: Application to the coast at North-East Aegean Sea (Thrakiko Pelagos), Greece

In this study, a probabilistic vulnerability assessment to the impact of storms in the coast of Thrace, Greece was carried out. To this end, the methodology presented by Bosom and Jiménez (2011) has been applied with some modifications. The introduced modifications, for this work, were the use of a different run-up model to deal with the...

Modelling dune erosion, overwash and inundation of barrier islands

Physical model experiments are performed at Deltares to investigate the morphological response of barrier islands on extreme storm events. The experiments included dune erosion, overwash and inundation regimes. Extensive measurement techniques made detailed comparison with numerical models possible. This paper describes the comparison between...
