The research addresses these threats by developing a rating system for hybrid dune-dike Nature-based Solutions (NbS) to enhance coastal resilience while promoting ecological regeneration. Building upon established frameworks like LEED and SITES, the rating system adapts sustainability criteria to meet the unique challenges of coastal infrastructure, incorporating life cycle assessment (LCA), ecological restoration, and socio-economic impact. The framework evaluates hybrid structures that combine natural dune systems with engineered dikes, ensuring holistic performance in flood protection, biodiversity enhancement, and long-term sustainability. Key assessment categories include site selection, materials, construction practices, NbS, and long-term monitoring and maintenance. The system employs a weighted scoring approach to ensure a balanced evaluation of environmental, economic, and social impacts. The proposed system will be evaluated and confirmed through demonstrators located along European coasts, offering a pioneering approach to blue-grey infrastructure management. This study presents the rating system's development process, structure, and goals, emphasizing its potential for scaling Nature-based coastal protection solutions while fostering community involvement and environmental stewardship.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Development of a sustainability rating system for hybrid Dune-Dike nature-based solutions: a foundational step toward broader blue-grey infrastructure assessment","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-09-28 10:24:18.840325","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"AuthorKeywords":"life-cycle assessment","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2025,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2026-09-28","DateCreate":"2026-09-28","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:001764648000141","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":448421,"PubliDate":2025,"Pagination":"012141","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"1554","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":300497,"SerRR":"IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science.
