The impact of climate change on coastal erosion in Southeast Asia and the compelling need to establish robust adaptation strategies [PDF]
HeliyonClimate change alters the climate condition and ocean environment, leading to accelerated coastal erosion and a shift in the coastline shape. From previous studies, Southeast Asia's coastal region is suffering from severe coastal erosion.

Methodology for Improving the Analysis, Interpretation, and Geo-Visualisation of Erosion Rates in Coastal Beaches—Andalusia, Southern Spain [PDF]
Geosciences, 2018 Erosion is one of the major issues currently facing coastal areas. Some consequences of this process are beach loss and higher flood risk, which will likely be exacerbated given ongoing sea-level rise.

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,

An Approach for the Validation of a Coastal Erosion Vulnerability Index: An Application in Sicily
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 In recent decades, coastal erosion phenomena have increased due to climate change. The increased frequency and intensity of extreme events and the poor sediment supply by anthropized river basins (dams, river weirs, culverts, etc.) have a crucial role in
