Abstract

In this chapter a brief overview of direct and indirect human impact to coastal systems is given. The concept of coastal morphodynamics as relevant drivers of coastal ecosystems is explained and the interactions of important processes in different spatio-temporal scales are introduced. In several examples it is shown how coastal developments act as perturbations to the dynamic equilibria of natural coastal environments. Important uncertainties in system understanding are identified and their relevance for the interpretation of model predictions is stressed out. Numerical models serve as common tools for coastal development impact assessment, and the more and more user friendly design of modelling systems will increase their use in the future. This calls for an increased awareness and very careful interpretation of model results considering model applicability and model prediction skills. Management should thus follow an adaptive approach, which involves learning and monitoring of the evolution of coastal systems. This also involves regular re-assessments of past predictions and the identification of needs for model development.
