Storm-induced impacts are known to cause important economic and environmental damages to coastal systems worldwide. Consequently, the relevance of including hazards and vulnerability assessments in coastal policies has been highlighted during the last years, so that coastal managers can make informed decision to apply mitigation and/or adaptation plans. The main purpose of this thesis is to develop a methodology to quantitatively assess coastal vulnerability to storms at different time scales, considering the two main storm-induced hazards separately (inundation and erosion). In this work, vulnerability is defined as the potential of a coastal system to be harmed by the impact of a storm. Thus, it has been quantified by comparing the magni...
