Why is it important?

The paper shows a new method of coastal risk assessment, based on data easily available and, therefore, enforceable at regional scale.

Perspectives

The new methodology could be also extended to evaluate the coastal risk condition in other Mediterranean littoral areas characterized by similar morpho-dynamic and urbanized conditions.
