Exzellenzcluster 80 (EXC): Ozean der Zukunft

Description: Das Projekt "Exzellenzcluster 80 (EXC): Ozean der Zukunft" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von tian-Albrechts-Universität zu Universität zu Kiel, Forschungs- und Technologie-Zentrum Westküste durchgeführt. Although several predictions of sea-level rise and climate change have been proposed, little is known about their long-term effects on coastal evolution over the next 100 years. The objective of the proposed research project is to develop a new strategy, in which process-based models are applied for the simulation of long-term morphodynamics. The results might be extended to similar coastal areas. The focal point of the investigation is to assess the impact of sea-level rise and of hydrodynamic effects of climate change on future morphodynamic behaviour. It is proposed to extend a two-dimensional process-based model in order to carry out simulations covering periods of about 100 years. The area of investigation is a coastal region between the Elbe and Eider estuaries in the German Bight. Simulations covering a wide range of representative scenarios regarding sea-level, effects of climate change (i.e. wind, waves, currents) and their morphological response will be carried out. The results obtained are intended to provide valuable information on the nature and extent of coastal evolution, thereby enhancing coastal zone management in the study area.
