Morphological Impacts and COastal Risks induced by Extreme storm events-The MICORE Project

The general aim of the project is to develop and demonstrate on-line tools for reliable predictions of the morphological impact of marine storm events in support of civil protection mitigation strategies. The project aims to analyse and map storm related risks in sensitive European regions taking into account intensity, spatial extent, duration, hazard interaction effects. The project is specifically targeted to contribute to the development of a probabilistic mapping of the morphological impact of marine storms and to the production of early warning and information systems to support long-term disaster reduction.
