A-Küst @ KLIFF

Changes in the coastal climate - evaluation of alternative strategies in coastal protection:  In 7 sub-projects, the research area ‘A- KŰST’ will investigate at a realistic scale, both the loads on conventional coastal protection structures for two climate change scenarios and comparatively alternative strategies for the time points 2030, 2070 and 2100. Primary aim of the project is creating an inevitably necessary regional database for the hydrodynamical loads due to climate change in order to deliver a sound basis for future coastal protection being beneficial for adaptation of coastal protection to climate change beyond the lifetime of the project. Stakeholder interests are considered by accompanying socioeconomic studies.
