The Mediterranean basin (including the Black Sea) is characterized by a plethora of deltas that have developed in wave-influenced setting. Many these are sourced sediments river catchments been variably dammed. vulnerability status selection ten subject to different levels reduction fluvial sediment supply following damming was analysed quantifying changes delta protrusion area and angle over last 30 years. rationale for choosing two metrics, which do not require tricky calculations...
Environmental challenges in the marine environment, such as pollution, habitat degradation, overexploitation, natural hazard and impacts of climate change, are intrinsically complex involve interacting human factors. Therefore, interdisciplinarity is necessary to address these challenges, it allows for a more comprehensive understanding interactions between societies ecosystems. In this perspective, Social Sciences Humanities (SSH) provide crucial insights into how communities perceive,...
The dynamics of the sandy coast between Castellaneta and Taranto (Southern Italy) has been influenced by many natural anthropogenic factors, resulting in significant changes coastal system over last century. interactions vertical components sea-level horizontal sedimentary budget, combination with impact, have resulted different erosion accretion phases past years. Local isostatic, eustatic, tectonic movements, together budget changes, must be considered order to predict shoreline evolution...
Four representative sectors encapsulating the morphological and hydrodynamic diversity of French coast are used to illustrate morphodynamics beach/dune systems at various timescales. These cover four shoreline composing coast, i.e., southern North Sea, English Channel, Atlantic Ocean, Mediterranean, range from storm-dominated short-fetch swell settings, micro- macrotidal. The short-term processes affecting strongly hinged on wind incidence storm intensity, while sediment supply, modulated by...
Abstract The evolution of the Rhône delta coast is analysed using digitally processed data obtained from field surveys effected in 1895, aerial photographs taken 1940, 1950, 1960, 1970, 1980 and 1990, a DGPS-based survey carried out 2000. whole dataset was integrated into Geographic Information System to determine coastline retreat advance quantify gains losses land area at coastal fringe delta. It shown that sediment input Rhône, longshore drift currents sea defences have had marked...
Résumé Les apports solides jouent un rôle déterminant dans la mobilité holocène des littoraux du delta Rhône. phases de progradation deltaïque sont associées aux abondants et grossiers qui liés forçages climatiques anthropiques les bassins versants.

La lobes deltaïques analysée depuis 7000 ans, avec intérêt particulier pour périodes défluviation...
We perform a grain-size trend analysis (GSTA) to investigate sediment-transport mechanisms in the Grand Rhone microtidal mouth during various hydroclimatic conditions. The objective is determine efficiency of this method explain directions residual transport pattern and mode distribution fluvial sediment input an environment that very difficult equip with instrumentation extreme events. known biases sedimentological approach are reduced by using enriched geostatistical processing choosing...

En raison des contraintes géographiques et hydrographiques qui le caractérisent (influence affluents méditerranéens, affaiblissement du profil longitudinal, proximité niveau marin), Bas-Rhône présente une tendance historique au stockage sédiments dans sa plaine d’inondation, responsable de la progradation deltaïque. Il constitue aujourd’hui zone-clé essentielle à compréhension relations entre bassin-versant milieu océanique, aussi bien pour transfert charge sédimentaire que les différents...
