Environmental Impact of Geosynthetics in Coastal Protection. [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials (Basel), 2021
Geosynthetic materials are applied in measures for coastal protection. Weathering or any damage of constructions, as shown by a field study in Kaliningrad Oblast (Russia), could lead to the littering of the beach or the sea (marine littering) and the discharge of possibly harmful additives into the marine environment.

Resilience from coastal protection [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions Series A, Mathematical, Physical, and Engineering Sciences, 2015
Coastal areas are important residential, commercial and industrial areas; but coastal hazards can pose significant threats to these areas. Shoreline/coastal protection elements, both built structures such as breakwaters, seawalls and revetments, as well as natural features such as beaches, reefs and wetlands, are regular features of a coastal community

THE USE OF MANGROVES IN COASTAL PROTECTION [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 2014
The objective of this research is to obtain generic relations between attenuated wave heights and various vegetation and topographical scenarios. Subsequently, it is aimed to find out what is the actual cost profit of a dike construction behind a mangrove zone comparing to the case when mangroves are absent.
