Abstract
ABSTRACT Gainza, J.; Rueda, A.; Camus, P.; Tomas, A.; Mendez, F.J.; Sano, M., and Tomlinson, R., 2018. A meta-modelling approach for estimating long-term wave run-up and total water level on beaches. Wave run-up is defined as the maximum vertical extent of wave up-rush on a beach or structure above the sea water level from wave breaking. Wave run-up is responsible for beach and dune erosion and can be an important component of coastal flooding. Run-up can be estimated using either empirical formulations or sophisticated wave-breaking models with high computational demand. On the other hand, meta-models are efficient approximations of physical-process models that enable researchers to obtain long-term time series of wave dynamics. These hybrid models are developed by combining statistical techniques and numerical models. In this study, a methodology to transform offshore sea conditions to long-term time series of wave run-up is described. The methodology combined the construction of two meta-models of offs...
