Abstract | Coastal zones are highly dynamic land-ocean interfaces, exposed to numerous natural and man-made risks. In the scope of the MarRISK project (0262_MARRISK_1_E) a multi-disciplinary consortium (joining MeteoGalicia, APA, CETMAR, CIIMAR, IEO, IH, IIM-CSIC, INTECMAR, IPMA, LMAG, UAveiro, UMinho and UVigo) addresses several types of coastal risks, including erosion, overwash/overtopping and flood risks, aiming to support coastal management in the mitigation of climate-change related impacts in the Northern Portuguese and Galician regions. |
