A method for predicting future shorelines based on weighted-Markov-chains
Geocarto InternationalShoreline migration can directly reflect the stability of marine ecology, and human beings may be reminded to protect shorelines. However, shoreline migration has considerable randomness, and each segment of the shoreline has undergone highly diverse ...

QUANTIFICATION OF SHORELINE RHYTHMICITY
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1984 The study of beach morphology, for example, its changes with wave and tide conditions, is facilitated by the development of simple numerical values which characterize the morphology. Multivariate (EOF) analysis of topographic contour data is a means for determining important morphologic components which vary independently.

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract With the rapid expansion of transnational biodiversity policy instruments promoting large‐scale landscape transformations that depend on public support for their success and feasibility, understanding the mechanisms underlying pro‐biodiversity attitudes has become important.

Using Modern Photogrammetric Techniques to Map Historical Shorelines and Analyze Shoreline Change Rates: Case Study on Bodie Island, North Carolina. [PDF]
, 2003 The efficacy of coastal development regulations in North Carolina is dependent on accurately calculated shoreline erosion rates. North Carolina's current methodology for regulatory erosion rate calculation does not take advantage of emerging GIS ...

Nearshore Wave Transformation Domains from Video Imagery
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019 Within the nearshore area, three wave transformation domains can be distinguished based on the wave properties: shoaling, surf, and swash zones.

Effects of sediment grain size and seasonal changes on macrobenthic community structure inhabiting the south and southeastern parts of the Caspian Sea shoreline [PDF]
بومشناسی آبزیان, 2021 In this study, we investigated the effects of sediment grain size and seasonal change on the structure of macrobenthic communities in the south and southeastern shorelines of the Caspian Sea for one year using a hand corer.

Theoretical Forms of Shorelines
Coastal Engineering 1964, 1960 Laboratory tests say that the littoral transport by waves reaches a maximum value when the waves approach the shore obliquely. In some way this must lead to peculiarities in the forms of shorelines. Therefore we put the question what types of shorelines can mathematically exist assuming the littoral transport is ruled by the function sin 2oC where c<

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Florida's regulatory framework requires the establishment of minimum flows to protect aquatic ecosystems and water resources from significant harm. One of the primary methods used to evaluate significant harm is assessment of instream habitat, which relies on Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) curves that relate flow regimes and habitat ...
