THESEUS will develop a systematic approach to delivering both a low-risk coast for human use and healthy habitats for evolving coastal zones subject to multiple change factors. The innovative combined mitigation and adaptation technologies to be considered will include

  • ecologically-based mitigation measures (such as restoration and/or creation of habitats)
  • hydro-morphodynamic techniques (such as wave energy converters, sediments reservoirs, multi-purpose structures, overtop resistant dikes)
  • actions to reduce the impact on society and economy (such as promotion of risk awareness or spatial planning)
  • GIS-based software to support defence planning.
