Abstract
This paper describes new wave overtopping field measurements at Ostia yacht harbour breakwater (Rome, Italy). The structure, the measurement strategy and the equipment are described in some details. Preliminary results of a recently measured overtopping storm (Oct 2003) are presented. The activities are carried out within the framework of the European Union research project CLASH, aimed at studying model scale effects in overtopping studies and at providing scientific and professional communities with reliable crest level design criteria for coastal structures.
