Coastal wave and storm-surge modelling to assess vulnerability of communities to climate change impacts with applications to nature-based solutions for adaptation of coastal infrastructure
EF 2021-22 · 2021-10-01
Résumé
Nature-based coastal and riverine infrastructure options have become increasingly common elements of climate adaptation plans. The long-term success of these solutions depends equally on the capacity for a particular solution to achieve desired outcomes, and the ability of this infrastructure to withstand both current and future environments. Coastal hydrodynamics models for waves, SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore) model, and storm surge, Delft 3D, will be used to assess potential storm surge levels and wave action along parts of coastal Newfoundland and Labrador. Results will be used to identify study sites that are vulnerable to such events at present, or in the future, where nature-based infrastructure solutions can be used as part of climate change adaptation measures. Climate change adaptation strategies using nature-based solutions to coastal protection infrastructure will be explored at the identified study site(s).
