Chalk cliff retreat in East Sussex and Kent 1870s to 2001 [PDF]
, 2006 The retreat of chalk cliffs fringing the eastern English Channel contributes shingle to the beaches which helps to protect the cliffs and slow down erosion. Conversely, cliff retreat endangers settlements and infrastructure on the clifftop.

GlobR2C2 (Global Recession Rates of Coastal Cliffs): a global relational database to investigate coastal rocky cliff erosion rate variations [PDF]
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2018 Abstract. Rocky coast erosion (i.e., cliff retreat) is caused by a complex interaction of various forcings that can be marine, subaerial or due to rock mass properties. From Sunamura's seminal work in 1992, it is known that cliff retreat rates are highly variable over at least four orders of magnitude, from 1 to 10 mm yr−1. While numerous local studies

Cliff top habitats provide important alternative feeding resources for wading birds of conservation importance wintering on non-estuarine coasts [PDF]
, 2014 Rocky shores and beaches are important over-wintering areas for non-estuarine waders but have rarely been studied. We examined cliff top habitat use by 6 species of wader over 75 km of coast to assess their potential value as alternative feeding sites to

Monitoring Cliff Erosion with LiDAR Surveys and Bayesian Network-based Data Analysis
Remote Sensing, 2019 Cliff coasts are dynamic environments that can retreat very quickly. However, the short-term changes and factors contributing to cliff coast erosion have not received as much attention as dune coasts.

Cliff erosion monitoring dataset on selected sites of Polish coast
Data in Brief, 2020 Coastal storms are highly unpredictable phenomena, frequently changing their characteristics and directly linked to global climate changes. They result in an intensive erosion processes and, are now a serious concern for the communities inhabiting the ...

Mapping of Coastal Cliff Erosion in Denmark [PDF]
, 2020 <p>Coastal cliff erosion is often an underestimated process to understand shoreline evolution in Denmark. Cliff failure occurs episodically and not always coincides with the highest waves, making prediction difficult. Therefore, comprehensive knowledge about the spatial distribution of cliff erosion in Denmark and the historical ...
