The present article is a study of the applicability of different sources ofmeteorological forcing for the coastal wave and storm surge models, whichprovide the operational marine forecasts for the coastal early warning systems(EWS) and are used for reconstructions of historical storms. The reconstructionof historical storms is one of the approaches to the natural coastal hazardvulnerability assessment. We evaluate the importance of the inputmeteorological information for the mentioned types of coastal models. For twowell documented historical storms, that caused significant damages along theBulgarian coast we simulate the significant wave heights and sea level change,using SWAN wave model and a storm surge model. The wind and mean sea levelpressure fields, which are used in the present study, are extracted from theERA Interim reanalysis of the European Center for Medium range Forecasts(ECMWF) and from the output of the high resolution limited area numericalweather prediction model ALADIN. The overall conclusion is that for thesuccessful historical storms reconstructions ERA Interim and ERA40 reanalysisare valuable source of meteorological forcing, but due to their limitations interms of spatial and temporal resolution, it is recommended to produce a higherspatial and temporal resolution meteorological fields, using dynamicaldownscaling of the reanalyzed data.
