Nicosia Τ Ο U Μ Α Ζ I S Adaptation of Coastal Built Environment Due to Climate Change Dr Antonis Toumazis Dion. Toumazis & Associates Architects and Consulting Engineers

Nicosia Τ Ο U Μ Α Ζ I S Presentation Overview Flooding problem Climate Change Long term adaptation Short Term Solutions

Nicosia Τ Ο U Μ Α Ζ I S Wave overtopping/ coastal flooding depends on : Sea level during the storm Wave characteristics of incident waves Beach/ coastal characteristics The sea level varies due to the following factors: Astronomical tide Storm Surge Mean sea level

Nicosia Τ Ο U Μ Α Ζ I S Land Elevation

Nicosia Τ Ο U Μ Α Ζ I S EU Seventh Framework Programme Environment Smart Resilience Technology, Systems and Tools- SMARTeST Technologies for improved safety of the built environment in relation to flood events

Nicosia Τ Ο U Μ Α Ζ I S Long Term Short Term

Nicosia Τ Ο U Μ Α Ζ I S Conclusions 1.Coastal Flooding more frequent 2.Plan for Higher Sea Level - Adaptable Constructions - Change Planning/ Building Regulations 3.Living with Floods – Technology
