We aim to produce an integrated model of the coast that can predict coastal changes for estuaries, gravel beaches,
sandy beaches and dunes, and cliffs made up of both hard and soft rock.
The model incorporates climate projections to the 2020s, 2050s, 2080s
and our best understanding of long-term coastal change to 2100, 2200 and 2500AD.
A Decision Support System will enable stakeholders and communities to engage with future scenarios
and impact on energy and coastal management policy.
Inundated areas shown should not be used for regulatory, permiting, or other legal purposes. The University of Liverpool (as part of the ARCoES project) provides these maps and data "as-is" for a quick reference, decision support tool, but assumes no legal liability or responsibility resulting from the use of this information.

Threshold | Degree | Description |
---|---|---|
< 0.75 | Low | Caution: Flood zone with shallow water or deep standing water |
0.75 - 1.25 | Moderate | Dangerous for some (i.e., children): Flood zone with deep or faster flowing water |
1.25 - 2.0 | Significant | Dangerous for most people: Flood zone with deep or fast flowing water |
> 2.0 | Extreme | Dangerous for all: Flood zone with deep or fast flowing water |
Threshold(H) = d(v + 0.5) + DF, where d is the flood depth, v is the flood velocity and DF is the debris factor (DF) |
