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
