COASTAL MANAGEMENT AND ENGINEERING

The coast plays an indisputably important role in human life from many points of view: socio-economic, commercial, recreational, residential and tourist, but it is also important for its environmental richness.

In recent decades, humanity has become aware of the need to ensure the stability of coasts and their biodiversity through sustainable actions and appropriate environmental management, for which it is essential to understand coastal processes and their effects on the coast.

NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS OF LITTORAL MORPHODYNAMICS

Understand the complex physical processes that occur in coastal areas and how these processes affect their morphology

DESIGN OF COASTAL INFRASTRUCTURES AND PROJECTS

IHCantabria assists public administrations, companies and coastal managers in the design, construction and monitoring of infrastructures and actions on the coast…

INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT OF THE COASTLINE AND MARITIME SPACE

Coastlines and maritime spaces offer numerous natural resources, which is why they support a wide range of activities and uses that can in turn jeopardize the functionality and sustainability of coastal and marine systems

TRACKING AND MONITORING THE COAST

Tracking and monitoring the coast is essential to determine how it changes in response to the dynamics at play or human intervention…
