Human Impact on the Spatiotemporal Evolution of Beach Resilience on the Northwestern Yucatan Coast

The northern Yucatan peninsula is prone to coastal flooding and erosion owing its low-land elevation high exposure storms. Therefore, it important assess the capability of beach-dune system resist, recover, adapt from storms in context development climate change. This work aims investigate role human impacts on spatiotemporal evolution Coastal Resilience Index (CRI) area. study conducted a prograding micro-tidal beach located vicinity structures. Beach dune morphometrics, characteristic parameters, maximum shoreline recession were determined analysis profiles undertaken along 2-km straight coastline during 2015–2020 period. Moreover, extreme water levels estimated using situ data numerical models. information employed alongshore temporal variability resilience. results suggest that morphology present due associated degradation presence shows resilience has been increasing over past years but presents significant variations. High CRI values found at transects presenting low anthropogenic impact, whereas was observed with degraded or structures regardless progradation rates. response passage recent tropical consistent values.
