Assessments of coastal erosion in rivers state, Nigeria, using global cover 30

Coastal dynamics and erosion are phenomena that have a considerable impact on inhabitants of coastal areas, regardless whether the ac-tivity driving them is natural or manmade. Because high percentage world's population lives along shoreline, raise in sea level will substantial effect many people. Additionally, it an low-lying areas islands. Using satellites for management monitoring changes land cover use, possible to gain better understanding global Erosion, especially Rivers State, Nigeria. This study investigated state, Nigeria, utilizing Global 30 data. GIS post-processing data were utilized track occurring over twenty-year period from 2000 2020. Two distinct temporal frames identified within given time span. The result analysis indicated there was more as by major coastline, Furthermore, 47151000m2 observed 2020, twenty years with 47151km2 lost state coastline. It suggested regular utilization remote sensing geographic information system together ground surveys be employed monitor rates, thereby assist-ing pinpointing most advantageous sites protective barriers Nigerian coast effort curtail erosion.
