Nature-based flood defences receive increasing interest as a viable option for improving flood safety worldwide. A contemporary case is using the ability of saltmarshes to attenuate waves during storm conditions for strengthening coastal flood defences. To ensure a long-term rein

The mean overtopping discharge and the overtopping flow parameters related to individual overtopping events are often used to characterize the wave overtopping processes at dikes. Roughness, berms and oblique waves have significant effects on the wave overtopping processes at dik

Design discharges corresponding to large return periods are generally highly uncertain because of the relatively short data set of measured discharges. The uncertainty in these discharge predictions can be decreased by extending the data set of annual maximum discharges with hist
