Portugal – Port of Aveiro
Location
Coastal infrastructure adjacent to the Aveiro Lagoon, central Portugal.
Key facts
Strategic regional port serving both industrial and commercial activities, with significant exposure to climate-related hazards due to its coastal location and logistical importance.
Actions
As part of the OPENHIDRA framework, the Port of Aveiro will focus on water levels, salinity, temperature, wave-current interaction velocities, wave characteristics, overtopping mean discharges, ship movements when manoeuvring, and moored ship forces and movements.
Expected impacts
- Strengthened adaptation strategies tailored to critical coastal logistics infrastructure.
- Increased operational continuity and efficiency under climate stress.
- Integration of resilience planning into port operations and territorial development.
