Design coastal protection measures based on
• severe storm impact
• hydraulic boundary conditions
• future climate change scenarios
Why CREST project?
ever measured?
sufficient data?
uncertain assumptions
simulation models are a simplified estimation of reality, possibly leading to an overestimation of investments in order to work on
the safe side
CREST-project aims to provide (some) answers to uncertainties

– 4 scenarios were put forward
– Evaluated by external experts
– Final report deliverd

Effect of SLR on waves
• 1728 simulations
• Higher increase in significant wave height at coast for:
– Higher waves
– Higher peak periods
– Higher wind speeds
– Lower water levels
– Waves from N (to NNW)
– Higher SLR
• Higher increase at western part of coast
• For SLR of 0.85 m, overall increase of 0.13 to 0.19 m

Conclusions
• CREST project looking at a different angle at coastal protection
• CREST project put forward various climate change scenarios, including SLR
• CREST project tries to give some information on the effect of SLR on the coast
