Economic Valuation of Beach Erosion Control Programs
In this study, we employ a choice-based conjoint survey design to elicit individual choices of beach erosion control programs that can potentially cause multiple effects on beach environment. Two empirical choice models which incorporate individual heterogeneity, are used to analyze and compare the elicited individual choices of erosion control programs. Our results show that to a typical indiv...
متن کاملFINAL REPORT: Sargassum and Beach Erosion: Potential Costs and Benefits for Coastal Managers
Sargassum fluitans and natans, types of brown algae wash up on Galveston Island, Texas each year from May to August. Sargassum smells bad, hurts tourism and impairs sea turtle hatchings. Coastal managers are confronted with the difficult choice of cleaning Sargassum off the beach front or leaving it alone. The current beach management practice is to rake the algae with mechanical tractors and d...
متن کاملEvaluation of Close-Range Photogrammetric Technique for Deformation Monitoring of Large-Scale Structures: A review
Close-range photogrammetry has been used in many applications in recent decades in various fields such as industry, cultural heritage, medicine and civil engineering. As an important tool for displacement measurement and deformation monitoring, close-range photogrammetry has generally been employed in industrial plants, quality control and accidents. Although close-range photogrammetric applica...
متن کاملLarge-scale Coastal Behaviour in Relation to Coastal Zone Management
Marcel J.F. Stive The development of coastal erosion management addressing typical traditional erosion problems towards coastal zone management addressing the evaluation of alternative solutions to guarantee a variety of coastal zone functions on their economic time scale has necessitated the formulation of large-scale coastal evolution (LSCE) models. Using the coastal evolution of the Netherla...
متن کاملIMPROVED BAT ALGORITHM FOR OPTIMUM DESIGN OF LARGE-SCALE TRUSS STRUCTURES
Deterring the optimum design of large-scale structures is a difficult task. Great number of design variables, largeness of the search space and controlling great number of design constraints are major preventive factors in performing optimum design of large-scale truss structures in a reasonable time. Meta-heuristic algorithms are known as one of the useful tools to d...
