This demonstrator Sectoral Information System (SIS) contract under the auspices of the Copernicus Climate Change Services (C3S), providing a consistent European dataset for tide, storm surge and wave conditions, for both a historical period, reanalysis (ERA5) and future scenarios (Representative Concentration Pathways, RCPs). In addition, five tailor-made use cases demonstrate how various coastal sectors across Europe could be benefit from these data sets in the Climate Data Store (CDS, https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/#!/home^{Image Modified}).
Besides pan-European tide, storm surge and wave datasets, will also include a set of Climate Impact Indicators (CII's) and new tools designed to evaluate the impacts of climate change on European coast line in general, as well as different sectors and industries. The resulting data and indicators are fully accessible from the CDS.
Apart from producing meaningful European climate change dataset, Deltares is coordinating five coastal use cases from the Netherlands, UK, Denmark, Ireland and Italy, that are vulnerable to climate change impact. The focus is on coastal issues such as flooding, sedimentation and coastal erosion, industries such as offshore wind and ports are also included. With good practice of the use cases the consortium can demonstrate the extraordinary value of such a climate data service on the management and operation of coastal sectors.
