The waves were generated by a low pressure system coming from the Atlantic Ocean and propagated with a mean wave direction of 55º. It was recorded a historical maximum of significant wave height of 8.4 m (Tp = 11.7 s) in the Gulf of Valencia and a sea level around 60 cm above the mean level. The storm caused a severe damage along the coast, with erosion and flooding of beaches and destruction of coastal infrastructures. In this work, we evaluate the distribution and intensity of coastal damages caused by this extreme event along the Spanish Mediterranean coast based on the analysis of published news in the most popular newspapers of each region. The type of damage, its intensity and spatial distribution are discussed. Most of the beaches were impacted by the storm, being the main damages the erosion and destruction, and the most impacted provinces Valencia, Castellón and Barcelona. This methodology is suggested to be a good approach to comparatively evaluate damages caused by extreme storms at a regional scale This work has been done in the framework of the MOCCA research project (RTI2018-093941-B-C32) funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities – National Agency of Research 2021-03-31T05:50:05Z 2021-03-31T05:50:05Z 2020-09-03 2021-03-31T05:50:06Z comunicación de congreso http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_5794 XI Congreso Ibérico de Gestión y Planificación del Agua (2020) XI Congresso Ibérico de Gestão e Planeamento da Água (2020) http://hdl.handle.net/10261/236482 http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100011033 #PLACEHOLDER_PARENT_METADATA_VALUE# info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/AEI/Plan Estatal de Investigación Científica y Técnica y de Innovación 2017-2020/RTI2018-093941-B-C32 Sí open Fundación Nueva Cultura del Agua
