Abstract: In the present work, the numerical simulation of coastal flooding is investigated considering the synergy of fluvial flooding, storm surge and wave induced setup/runup. Two approaches are developed: the first one is based on a linear wave propagation model and a breaking wave induced circulation and setup (based on the Shallow Water Equations), while the second one is based on a higher order Boussinesq-type intra-period nonlinear dispersive wave model which describes the propagation of breaking waves in the surf and swash zone.
