Impact of Hurricane Maria on Beach Erosion in Puerto Rico: Remote Sensing and Causal Inference
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 Beach erosion due to large storms critically affects coastal vulnerability, but is challenging to monitor and quantify. Attributing erosion to a specific storm requires a reliable counterfactual scenario: hypothetical beach conditions, absent the storm ...

Costal Erosion: The Future of Sandy Beaches
Proceedings of the European Academy of Sciences and Arts, 2022 The coastal zone is a constantly changing area and is one of the most vulnerable one because of climate crisis. In addition to the high concentration of population in coastal areas, there is also high activity in sectors such as tourism, trade and work.

The Formation and Erosion of Beaches, &c [PDF]
Nature, 1892 As you have more than once permitted me to discuss the problem of sea-waves in your columns, I venture to point out that in your interesting article on Signer Cornaglia's work on sea beaches (p. 362), in your summary of the causes which affect beaches, sand-banks, c but it is the occasional, irregular, and sometimes powerful wind-raised current ...

BEACH VOLUME CHANGE USING UAV PHOTOGRAMMETRY SONGJUNG BEACH, KOREA [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2016 Natural beach is controlled by many factors related to wave and tidal forces, wind, sediment, and initial topography. For this reason, if numerous topographic data of beach is accurately collected, coastal erosion/acceleration is able to be assessed and ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 The coastal area at Riccione, in the southern Emilia-Romagna littoral region, is exposed to erosive processes, which are expected to be enhanced by climate change. The beach, mostly composed of fine sand, is maintained through various defense strategies,

Long shore sediment transport computation for Hai Hau beach-Nam Dinh province
Vietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2003 Several stretches of shore line in the Red River Delta (RRD) are suffering from severe erosion, especially an area between too large river mouths Balat in the North and Day in the South, known as Hai Hau beach. Several different hypothesis have been put

On the coastal erosion risk assessment indexes [PDF]
Journal of Risk Analysis and Crisis Response (JRACR), 2013 China is one of the most severely affected countries by coastal erosion. About 70% of the sandy beaches and most of muddy tidal flat in open water regions are erode. Coastal erosion results in the width of beach being narrowed, bathing beach destruction,
