| Abstract |
Urban areas in low-lying coastal zones are protected from flooding by a hybrid soft-hard coastal defence structures. Ig wave-related processes in these structures have a significant but insufficiently researched effect on the beach erosion and wave overtopping over the dike. The proposed research aims at gaining more insight into the influence of those ig waves on the wave propagation over the beach and dike (hydrodynamics), and how that affects erosion of the beach (morphodynamics). |
