The Coastline Evolution Model 2D (CEM2D) V1.1

Abstract. Coasts are among the most intensely used environments on planet, but they also present dynamic and unique hazards, including flooding erosion. Sea level rise changing wave climates will alter patterns of erosion deposition, some existing coastline evolution models unable to simulate these effects due their one-dimensional representation systems or sediment transport processes. In this paper, development application Coastline Evolution Model 2D (CEM2D) presented, a model which incorporates influences. The has been developed from established CEM is capable simulating fundamental cause–effect relationships in coastal systems. two-dimensional storage CEM2D, only done one-dimension CEM, mean it exploring influence variable water formation morphological features landforms at mesoscale. sits between three-dimensional models, with advantage increased complexity detail outputs compared former more efficiency less computational expense than latter.
