Abstract
Located in the Pacific between Australia and Hawaii, the Republic of Marshall Islands (RMI) is one of the World’s smallest, most isolated and vulnerable nations. Ebeye, a small low-lying and densely populated island on Kwajalein Atoll (Figure 1), is at risk from coastal inundation and erosion due to swell waves and typhoons. Impacts will be magnified as sea levels rise. The key engineering performance Objectives and Level of Service (LOS) standards include design life, acceptable structural damage and wave overtopping, and time-dependent climate change effects including sea level rise and changes in typhoon intensity.
