Project Abstract
This project will help to inform current and future extreme sea level risk assessments for Irish coastlines which could be used to inform coastal flood defence strategies. The overall objectives of the project are to exploit existing methodologies for estimating current and future sea-level extremes and to expand upon them in order to produce state-of-the-art, accessible software packages and a web-application that will aid in the estimation and interpretation of the variability in Irish sea-levels and sea-level extremes in the past, present and future.
