Kerala's Coastal Area: The case for a coastal zone management plan covering coastal land and water
The beautiful coast of Kerala is as much a part of the unique dynamics of Kerala's social history as its natural history. The several ports on the coast facilitated commercial and cultural links of a population confined between the idyllic Western Ghats ranges and the Arabian Sea. These links extended to almost all the major ancient civilizations in the world. The fortuitous winds blowing over ...
متن کاملCoastal hypoxia and sediment biogeochemistry
The intensity, duration and frequency of coastal hypoxia (oxygen concentration <63μM) are increasing due to human alteration of coastal ecosystems and changes in oceanographic conditions due to global warming. Here we provide a concise review of the consequences of coastal hypoxia for sediment biogeochemistry. Changes in bottomwater oxygen levels have consequences for early diagenetic pathways ...
متن کاملiCOASST – INTEGRATING COASTAL SEDIMENT SYSTEMS
Coastal areas in England and Wales are at greater risk of flooding and erosion than their landward equivalents. To address these hazards, over the last 20 years, a process to develop long-term Shoreline Management Plans (SMPs) has been developed (Leafe et al., 1998; Cooper et al., 2002; DEFRA, 2006). The spatial boundary of SMPs is defined by coastal cell and sub-cell boundaries (of order 10 2 ...
متن کاملTahoe Regional Planning Agency Regional Plan
This section describes existing public services and utilities, presents analysis of potential impacts resulting from Regional Plan Update alternatives, and identifies any mitigation measures for those impacts determined to be significant. In particular, it addresses impacts on water supply, wastewater treatment and disposal, electricity, natural gas, solid waste, schools, fire protection, and l...
متن کاملSediment Transport Modelling for Coastal Morphodynamics
The accurate prediction of sand transport rates in the coastal zone depends not only upon the choice of sediment transport model but also, rather critically, upon the formulation used to predict the bed roughness (ks). Sand transport rates are modelled here using both a One-equation, turbulence-closure, TKE-model and also Bijker’s sand transport model. Following some remarks about the nature an...
