Erosion Risk Assessment of Active Coastal Cliffs in Temperate
The potentially negative consequences resulting from cliff recession are a matter of serious concern in many coastal areas worldwide. The assessment of these kind of processes has traditionally been performed by calculating average cliff recession rates and projecting them into the future, without taking into consideration the diverse factors affecting cliff dynamics and stability. In this work...
متن کاملA Decision Support Framework for the Risk Assessment of Coastal Erosion in the Yangtze Delta
Coastal erosion is an issue of widespread concern. As one of the most important economic regions in China, the coast of the Yangtze Delta has been showing a trend towards erosion with global warming and the increasing human activities in the catchment and its estuary. Currently, most published studies about coastal erosion in the area focused on the causes and types of erosion. This paper prese...
متن کاملFuzzy-based Spatial Knowledge Discovery in Service of Efficient Coastal Erosion Risk Assessment
The need for effective spatial knowledge discovery in risk assessment increases as the amount of the spatial data which is handled and analyzed for risk assessment has enlarged. Such large variety of spatial data should be integrated from multiple sources presenting different types, semantics, and level of details weather geometrically, temporally, or thematically. Therefore, spatial knowledge ...
متن کاملOperationalization of Sar Polarized Data for Assessment of Coastal Erosion
This study introduces a new approach for operationalization of SAR polarized data on coastal erosion studies. Polarized TOPSAR and ERS-1 data are used for this purpose. ERS-1 data was acquired on the 8 August 1993 and polarized TOPSAR data was acquired on the 6 December 1996. A quasi-linear model and a new model based on the Canny algorithm were used to model shoreline changes. Digitized vector...
متن کاملAssessment of the distribution, bioavailability and ecological risk assessment of heavy metals in the coastal sediments of Qeshm Island (Hormozgan)
Sediment samples were collected from 8 sites in the northern areas of Qeshm Island, Iran to determine the total and partial concentrations of heavy metals including copper (Cu), lead (Pb), nickel (Ni), cadmium (Cd), and Iron (Fe), in February 2016. A combination of nitric acid and perchloric acid was used to determine the total concentrations and sequential extraction method was used to analyze...
