The increasing pressures and hazards derived from human action climate change make the implementation of coastal monitoring plans a requirement for assessing responses evolution. For this reason, work aims to use unmanned aerial systems (UAS) in combination with Structure Motion algorithms detecting morphodynamic changes caused by storm Camposoto beach (SW Spain). This approach provided pre- post-storm digital elevation models study area root mean square vertical errors 6.89 5.54 cm,...

The accuracy and robustness of the shoreline definition from satellite imagery on different coastal types are crucial to adequately characterising beach morphology dynamics. However, generic widespread application satellite-derived algorithms is limited by lack robust methods parameter assessments. This work constitutes a quantitative comprehensive assessment waterlines Sentinel-2 using novel SAET tool (Shoreline Analysis Extraction Tool) exposed mesotidal La Victoria (Cádiz, SW Spain)....

Abstract There is a relative lack of research, targeted models and tools to manage beaches in estuaries bays (BEBs). Many have been highly modified urbanised, for example port developments coastal revetments. This paper outlines the complications opportunities conserving managing BEBs estuaries. To do this, we focus on eight diverse case studies from North South America, Asia, Europe, Africa Australia combined with broader global literature. Our key findings are as follows: (1) exist under...

Over recent years, processes related to marine storms, sediment shortages and human intervention have caused the global retreat of many coastal systems degradation their dunes. In this context, changes in dune toe are commonly used as a proxy study interannual shoreline evolution, it is usually analyzed using orthophotography, while high temporal- spatial-scale resolution studies evolution not frequent. work, quasi-monthly data was carried out between 2008 2018.

The distribution of decisional power and ability local communities to participate in natural hazard risk governance (NHRG) are critical success factors for sustainable development. This article assesses the evolution participation at level NHRG using bibliometric international discourse analysis. results show that participation-related concepts underrepresented NHRG, compared environmental resource management community & livelihood development fields research. implies existence...

In this study a video-monitoring system was used to analyze the presence of mesoforms during time period five years in urban beach La Victoria, Cádiz, Spain. This technique allowed generation plan views using an improved version ULISES software. The and spatiotemporal variability most common mesoforms, such as bars cusps, identified all views. Furthermore, morphodynamic state investigated combination with local hydrodynamic data. cusp systems were also studied by means wavelet analyses...
