Recent Evolution (1956–2017) of Rodas Beach on the Cíes Islands, Galicia, NW Spain
Sedimentary coastal areas change rapidly and are economically and environmentally important. This research focuses on determining the extent to which natural dynamics and human activity have contributed to visible changes on Rodas, Cíes Islands in ...

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and structure‐from‐motion photogrammetry enable detailed quantification of geomorphic change. However, rigorous precision‐based change detection can be compromised by survey accuracy problems producing systematic ...

Geomorphic change detection (GCD) using high resolution topographic data can provide important insights into geomorphological systems. However, considerations must first be given to the mechanisms and dynamics producing landscape change when considering ...

Quantifying river morphological changes using multi‐satellite observations and in situ measurements
This study integrates optical, radar and altimetry satellite data with river gauge measurements to estimate periodically submerged riverbed topography and quantify morphological change. By linking how often water covers the riverbed with water‐level variations, erosion and deposition patterns are mapped across a reach of Jamuna River.

ABSTRACT Streambank erosion is an important source of sediment to river systems but is difficult to quantify at watershed scales. In this study, high‐resolution Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) measurements collected from 2009 and 2020 were used to quantify the difference in land surface elevation that occurred along the fourth and fifth‐order ...

The impact of riparian vegetation on bank erosion during extreme weather events
This study uses lidar and aerial imagery to investigate relationships between riparian vegetation cover and bank erosion during extreme weather events. Bank erosion was related to riparian vegetation cover/removal and river geomorphology (notably radius of curvature and inner/outer bends).

Four methods were used to quantify short‐term (1–2 years) reach‐wide streambank erosion rates along three low‐order streams in western Virginia: (1) bank height and cross‐section (XS) surveys, (2) bank height and top of bank (TOB) surveys, (3) bank height survey and aerial imagery analysis and (4) DEM of Difference (DoD) using UAS LiDAR with channel ...

UAV REMOTE SENSING APPLICATIONS IN BEACH-CLIFF SYSTEM MONITORING OF MORPHODYNAMIC PROCESSES
This study aims to evaluate the morphodynamic changes in a beach-cliff system in northeastern Brazil using high resolution data collected by UAV-SfM techniques to understand the geomorphic changes of the coastal landscape.

The hydro‐geomorphic effects of wooden leaky barriers in a steep headwater stream
The hydro‐geomorphic effects of 16 in‐stream wooden leaky barriers (LBs) were monitored over three years. The effects on velocities, inundation extent and celerity were limited. Localised backwater deposition initiated by LBs reduced velocities and increased inundation. A reach‐wide net deposition response of 3.49 ± 0.36 m3 was observed.
