The implementation, calibration and validation methodologies of wave propagation models and extreme levels simulation for different climate change scenarios are presented for three coastal stretches and the short term morphodynamics is presented for one of the beaches. SWAN software is applied for the implementation of a regional coastal model of the Iberian Peninsula, which enables the application of a dynamic downscaling methodology for global (atmospheric and oceanic) model results, allowing the use of local models of high spatial resolution (Delft3D). The interaction of the two coupled models allows simulating the propagation of waves to near shore locations. Modelling of sediment dynamics at the sea-land interface was performed using XBeach software integrated with the SWAN + Delft3D modelling system.
