Reducing long-term extreme coastal risk
Welcome
The Coastal Disaster Risk Laboratory conducts research in coastal and ocean engineering, particularly in the assessment of storm waves, storm surges, and tsunami hazards.
We are working on a long-term risk assessment of coastal mega disasters considering climate change. We also research nature-based solutions, especially mangrove forests, for coastal protection.
Laboratory Motto
Keep top-level research
Enjoy research and life
Respect your colleagues
and we believe
Chance favors the prepared mind
