Climate change is evident in many aspects, among them there is the progressive increase of the average sea level, which is affecting the rare extremes too, both on their frequency and intensity. The assessment of risks deriving from sea level variations requires a robust quantification of all the elements bringing the sea level to become a hazard thus, for an effective adaptation to future sea conditions, it is mandatory to have reliable knowledge on scenarios for sea level trends. This is the challenge addressed by the MedSeaRise project with the objective of improving the assessment of risks deriving from the Mediterranean sea level variations, through a robust quantification of its hazardous source.
