2. Coastal risk is increasing in Europe and beyond
• Coastal risk (prob. hazard * consequences) is increasing due to
(IPCC, 2014)
1. Increase in hazard intensity/frequency due to
• increased winds,
• extremes in rainfall
• sea level rise
2. Increase in consequences due to increased coastal development
• Without adaptation, flood damage on European coasts increase up
to 11 billion Euros per year
3. • Increased risk means a re-evaluation of Disaster Risk
Reduction measures
But …
• Where to invest? -> What are the hotspots?
• How can we include coastal hazards?
• What DRR measures work and why?
• What are the socio-cultural and historic aspects ?
• How can we quantify the effectiveness of DRR
measures?
• Can a generic approach be applied across Europe, in
data-rich and data-starved environments?

Risk reduction and increased resilience
4. To the rescue: the RISC-KIT Toolkit
1. Coastal Risk Assessment Framework
(CRAF) to identify - at the regional scale
(100’s km) - hot spot areas of coastal risk
2. Quantitative, high-resolution Early
Warning and Decision Support System
(EWS/DSS) to evaluate DRR measures in
hotspots
3. Web-based management guide collecting
and contrasting DRR measures;
4. Coastal Risk Database of present and
historic socio-economic and physical data.
5. Application at 11 case study sites
•10 Located
on all EU
regional seas
( )
•One site in
Bangladesh
• Diversity of
geomorphic
settings

6. • 100 interviews in 11 sites with local stakeholders on socio-economic, cultural and
historical perspectives and attitudes
• Collection of physical data of 100s of events in storm impact data base.
• Review and analysis of current-practice coastal risk management plans and
lessons-learned of historical large-scale events

7. • Rapid assessment of hotspots of risk on
the regional scale of O(100) km
• Inputs:
– Topo/bathymetry, grain size, water level and wave forcing
• Hazards:
– Wave runup, inundation, coastal erosion
• Vulnerability and exposure (in Library):
– Land use, buildings, population
– social vulnerability, transport systems
– critical infrastructure
• Hotspot selection
– Using Multi-Criteria Analysis
Coastal Risk Assessment Framework
8. Hotspot analysis tools
Morphodynamic Model
• Quantitative, high-resolution models for use
on hot spots
• To be used as Early Warning System but also
as ex-ante DRR evaluation tool
• Based on Delft-FEWS
but now for coasts
• Results to be stored in
Bayesian Belief Network
• Details by Tom Bogaard at 11:00, this session
9. Example: Ria Formosa (Portugal)
Berlin, 16-19 june 2015
• Gulf of Cadiz (D3D surge and SWAN wave models)
• Ria Formosa (D3D surge and SWAN wave models)
• Praia de Faro (Xbeach morphodynamical model)
10. • Connects Local Hazard Indicators to Damage
• Estimation of interventions can be
quantified.
Bayesian Belief Network
11. Development and evaluation of DRR measures
• Stakeholder interviews produced long list of
potential DRR measures
• After prioritization, selected DRR measures will be
tested for effectiveness with hotspot models
12. • RISC-KIT tool kit contains
• Regional-scale assessment of coastal risks
• Evaluation of DRR measures in hotspots
• Web-based management guide of potential DRR
measures and management practices
• Coastal risk database of current and historic data
• Supports EU Flood Directive and UNISDR risk
reduction goals
• All software is free-ware and/or open-source
Take home:
13. Expected impacts
1. Faster attainment of the disaster risk reduction goals of UNISDR
(United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction).
– Products geared to meet the Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA)’s and
Post 2015 Framework on DRR
2. Design of cost-effective risk-reduction plans, based on the
proposed tools and solutions.
– RISC-KIT tools of CRAF, EWS/DSS, database and management guide
will help coastal design.
3. Improve risk governance and preparedness through the
provision of timely information and warnings to decision-
makers.
– Development of EWS/DSS tool for events.
– CRAF and the scenario evaluation tool help decrease the ex-ante
coastal risk.
