Monitoring of Plant Species and Communities on Coastal Cliffs: Is the Use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Suitable? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Cliffs are reservoirs of biodiversity; therefore, many plant species and communities of inland and coastal cliffs are protected by Council Directive 92/43/EEC (European Economic Community), and their monitoring is mandatory in European Union countries ...

CCMORPH — Coastal Cliffs Morphology Analysis Toolbox

open access: yesSoftwareX, 2023
The Coastal Cliffs Morphology Analysis (CCMORPH) Toolbox is a collection of PYTHON scripts and a JavaScript tool to produce georectified information specifically tailored for the generation and quantitative analysis of coastal cliffs’ morphology. Although experts have employed numerous methods to extract coastal indicators from digital elevation models,

Short-term retreat statistics of a slowly eroding coastal cliff [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2011
The frequency, spatial distribution, and dimensions of coastal cliff retreats, a basic statistic underlying cliff top hazard assessment, are presented for 7.1 km of unprotected and slowly retreating coastal cliffs near Point Loma in San Diego, California,

Sea-level rise will likely accelerate rock coast cliff retreat rates

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Coastal response to anthropogenic climate change is of central importance to the infrastructure and inhabitants in these areas. Despite being globally ubiquitous, the stability of rock coasts has been largely neglected, and the expected acceleration of ...

CLIFF CHANGE DETECTION USING SIAMESE KPCONV DEEP NETWORK ON 3D POINT CLOUDS [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022
Mainly depending on their lithology, coastal cliffs are prone to changes due to erosion. This erosion could increase due to climate change leading to potential threats for coastal users, assets, or infrastructure.

A numerical study of tsunami wave impact and run-up on coastal cliffs using a CIP-based model [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017
There is a general lack of understanding of tsunami wave interaction with complex geographies, especially the process of inundation. Numerical simulations are performed to understand the effects of several factors on tsunami wave impact and run-up in the

A Method to Extract Measurable Indicators of Coastal Cliff Erosion from Topographical Cliff and Beach Profiles: Application to North Norfolk and Suffolk, East England, UK

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Recession of coastal cliffs (bluffs) is a significant problem globally, as around 80% of Earth’s coastlines are classified as sea cliffs. It has long been recognised that beaches control wave energy dissipation on the foreshore and, as a result ...
