As part of the activities within the ClimBeach project, a measurement device for monitoring sea dynamics was successfully deployed today in Neum.

The installed device operates based on ADCP (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler) technology and is designed to measure key marine parameters in moderately deep waters, with a particular focus on wind-generated waves and sea currents induced by tidal oscillations.

The collected data will serve as an important input for numerical modelling using specialized software tools. The main objective of these analyses is to improve the resilience of coastal areas to the impacts of climate change and to support the development of guidelines for sustainable beach stabilization and coastal management.

This activity represents an important step toward a better understanding of coastal processes and their long-term evolution under changing environmental conditions. Reliable field measurements such as these provide the scientific foundation needed for evidence-based planning and adaptation strategies.

The deployment was carried out jointly by Professor Maja Prskalo, Tatjana Džeba, MSc in Civil Engineering, and Assistant Professor Anton Vrdoljak—members of the project team from the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Architecture and Geodesy, University of Mostar—and the technical team of Hydromarine d.o.o., based in Split (Croatia), the contractor responsible for the installation of the measurement device, led by its director, Marin Milin.
