Shoreline Dynamics and Beach Erosion

open access: yesGeosciences, 2023
Coasts are highly dynamic and geomorphologic complex systems that evolve under the increasing pressure of climate change and anthropogenic activities, having direct or indirect impacts on the coastal environment.

Beach development, sediment budget and coastal erosion at Holderness. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Complex relationships exist among offshore conditions, beach sediment transport and morphology, and till cliff erosion. Modelled and measured sediment transport rates established for the Holderness coast are similar to those on comparable coasts ...

Beach erosion aggravates the drastic decline in marine turtle populations in French Guiana

open access: yesRegional Environmental Change, 2023
Yalimapo beach, near the Maroni River estuary in French Guiana, is an important turtle nesting site. The interaction of massive mud banks migrating alongshore from the distant Amazon River with discharge from the Maroni River generates strong beach ...

Coastal Structures as Beach Erosion Control and Sea Level Rise Adaptation in Malaysia: A Review

open access: yesWater, 2021
The shoreline of Malaysia is exposed to threats of coastal erosion and a rise of sea level. The National Coastal Erosion Study, 2015 reported that 15% of an 8840 km shoreline is currently eroding, where one-third of those falls under the critical and ...

An Experimental Investigation of Microbial-Induced Carbonate Precipitation on Mitigating Beach Erosion

open access: yesSustainability, 2022
Microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) has the potential to be an environmentally friendly technique alternative to traditional methods for sustainable coastal stabilization. This study used a non-pathogenic strain that exists in nature

Assessment of the Role of Nearshore Marine Ecosystems to Mitigate Beach Erosion: The Case of Negril (Jamaica)

open access: yesEnvironments, 2022
Coastal and marine ecosystems are supplying a wide range of services. With accelerated Sea Level Rise, intensification of waves and storm surge severity and increasing anthropogenic pressures, these areas are under multiple threats and society may not ...

Impact Assessment of Beach Erosion from Construction of Artificial Coastal Structures Using Parabolic Bay Shape Equation

open access: yes한국해양공학회지, 2020
Wave field changes resulting from artificial coastal structures constructed in coastal zones have emerged as a major cause of beach erosion, among other factors.

Fundamental issues in Japan’s management system of coast for preventing beach erosion

open access: yesMaritime Technology and Research, 2021
When an offshore or port breakwater is constructed on a coast, beach erosion often occurs on nearby beaches of the breakwater due to the wave diffraction effect of the breakwater associated with the formation of a wave-shelter zone, because longshore ...

A Study on the Influence of Sand Median Grain Size on the Short-Term Recovery Process of Shorelines

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Recently, the impacts of short-term erosion caused by storm waves on coastal damages are increasingly recognized as social issues, compared to those of long-term erosion from climate change or coastal development. The erosion caused by the storm wave has
