The first is based on the coupling of two robust numerical models (SWASH and LISFLOOD); in this case, discharges were extracted from the wave overtopping results from SWASH 1D and set as boundary conditions for LISFLOOD on the crest of an existing seawall where overtopping typically occurs. The second, hereby called the \u2018Tilted Bathtub Approach\u2019 (TBTA), is based on wave run-up levels and buffering the affected area of a prior flooding event, adjusting it for expected sea states according to different return periods. The proposed approaches are applied to a case study on the Northern Portuguese coast, at Furadouro beach, in the municipality of Ovar, which has been facing multiple flooding episodes throughout recent years, including a dramatic storm in February 2014. This event was used as validation for the proposed methods. A 30-year-long hourly local wave climate time series was used both to perform an extreme value analysis in order to obtain expected sea states according to different return periods and also for performing a sensitivity test for established empirical formulas to estimate wave run-up in this particular case. Results indicate both approaches are valuable: they yield coherent flood extension predictions that align well with the real inundated area from the 2014 storm. The convergence of these findings underscores the potential for these methods in future coastal flood risk assessment, planning, and understanding of coastal responses under extreme weather conditions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs15215215","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,3]],"date-time":"2023-11-03T02:41:56Z","timestamp":1698979316000},"page":"5215","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Coastal Flood Mapping with Two Approaches Based on Observations at Furadouro, Northern Portugal"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6458-8996","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jose E.","family":"Carneiro-Barros","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto (FEUP), Rua Dr. Roberto Frias, s\/n, 4200-465 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research, University of Porto (CIIMAR), Avenida General Norton de Matos, s\/n, 4450-208 Matosinhos, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9819-0927","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Theocharis A.","family":"Plomaritis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Applied Physics, Faculty of Marine and Environmental Sciences, Instituto Universitario de Investigaci\u00f3n Marina (INMAR), University of C\u00e1diz, Puerto Real, 11510 C\u00e1diz, Spain"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8549-3320","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tiago","family":"Fazeres-Ferradosa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto (FEUP), Rua Dr. Roberto Frias, s\/n, 4200-465 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research, University of Porto (CIIMAR), Avenida General Norton de Matos, s\/n, 4450-208 Matosinhos, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3768-3314","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paulo","family":"Rosa-Santos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto (FEUP), Rua Dr. Roberto Frias, s\/n, 4200-465 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research, University of Porto (CIIMAR), Avenida General Norton de Matos, s\/n, 4450-208 Matosinhos, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Francisco","family":"Taveira-Pinto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto (FEUP), Rua Dr. Roberto Frias, s\/n, 4200-465 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research, University of Porto (CIIMAR), Avenida General Norton de Matos, s\/n, 4450-208 Matosinhos, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"27","DOI":"10.5894\/rgci325","article-title":"Mapas de Risco das Zonas Costeiras por Efeito da A\u00e7\u00e3o Energ\u00e9tica do Mar","volume":"13","author":"Pereira","year":"2013","journal-title":"Rev.
