Abstract

Probability forecasts for natural loads, such as river discharge or wind speed, allow deriving predictive dike failure probabilities within a future time interval, the so-called operational dike failure probabilities. The operational dike failure probabilities can be used to assess the safety of dikes and can support decision making in the face of flooding.
