- <p>Santos, as a low-lying coastal city, suffers damages from storm <br>surges that affect both the shoreline and port activities. This study defines the <br>characteristics of extreme wave events used as boundary conditions in numerical <br>modeling and assesses the mitigation of their impacts through simulated scenarios <br>in Santos Bay, with and without coastal protection structures. The critical <br>thresholds were based on the Santos’s Plano Preventivo de Contingência para <br>Ressacas and Coastal Flooding and on past events. Simulations using the Delft3D <br>model considered two scenarios: without protection and with emerged <br>breakwaters. The results demonstrated the effectiveness of numerical modeling as <br>a predictive tool and the feasibility of breakwater structures as a robust measure <br>to mitigate impacts and enhance shoreline resilience. </p>
