Coastal flooding - two perspectives

1. Extreme events and their consequences - short term

• Wave impact on sea defense => Breaching => Hinterland inundation.

2. Long term changes in the coast’s resillience to potential extreme events

• Dune and dike stability.

• Importance of foreshore.

• Natural evolution versus anthropological activity (including climate adaptation).

Historical benchmark for Danish Coastal Engineers

Limfjord

Before 1862: The shoreline was located

more than 1500m further

offshore and there was no connection

between the North Sea

and the Limfjord

1862: Large breach occurred

1875-1930’ies: A large

groyne system were constructed

along the 22 km barrier

Today: Coastline is mitigated by

nourishment of about 750000 m3/year
