The impacts of coastal erosion are expected to increase through the present century, and beyond, as accelerating global mean sea-level rise begins to enhance or dominate local shoreline dynamics. In many cases, beach (and shoreline) response to sea-level rise will not be limited to passive inundation, but may be amplified or moderated by sediment redistribution between the beach and the broader...
A composite index, based on function analysis and including thirteen sub-indices, was developed to assess the overall quality of urban and urbanized beaches in the Mediterranean area. The aggregation of components and sub-indices was based on two questionnaires completed by beach users and experts. Applying the new Beach Quality Index (BQI) demonstrated that the quality of beaches could be impr...
Everyone is aware of the special relationship that man has with the coast; from the beginning of mankind, humans have been attracted to the littoral zone for the construction of settlements and the use of its resources. Subsequently, humans have evolved, leaving an increasingly large footprint on this medium. Hence, there is a need to deepen our knowledge to protect against the threat that we o...
Innovative methodology based on a combination of Real Time Kinematic GPS (RTK-GPS), lidar, and open source GIS was developed to gain a better understanding of rapid changes in coastal topography. Improved spatial interpolation techniques were implemented to produce detailed topographic surfaces from lidar and RTK-GPS data. The methodology is demonstrated for two North Carolina areas: Jockey's R...
The location of a wave farm, and, in particular, its distance to the coast is one of the key aspects in a wave energy project. In the selection of the location a number of variables are typically taken into account, from the wave resource to the maintenance or infrastructure costs; however, the effects of the farm on the coast, which can be instrumental in mitigating storm-induced erosion and t...
