| Abstract: | The evaluation of design waves for coastal protection structures is enormously important for both the safety of the hinterland and economical use of public money. Recently gained advancements in mathematical modeling of waves allow its successful application even in areas with complex morphological structures like the Wadden Sea.A remaining problem of coastal design wave modeling is still the evaluation of suitable boundary conditions for the evaluation of design wave parameters, particularly for the offshore and lateral boundaries of the model areas. The following paper highlights procedures applied for the solutions of these problems in the Frisian Wadden Sea at the southern North Sea coast which are partly also applicable at coastlines of any type. | |
