Description du projet
- The production a large database gathering detailed local information about storm impacts, using INNOVATIVE monitoring and modelling technologies.
- A new capitalization on historical storm events to support protection, monitoring and prediction actions led by public administrations.
- An unprecedented evaluation of the future evolution of coastal risks at the local scale.
- The identification and assessment of INNOVATIVE mitigation countermeasures to reduce the onshore impact of ocean storms
