Assessing climate change impacts on open sandy coasts: A review

Article history: Received 2 April 2016 Received in revised form 21 July 2016 Accepted 25 July 2016 Available online 1 August 2016 The world's coastlines are shaped by mean sea level, wave conditions, storm surge, and riverflows. Climate change (CC) driven variations in these environmental forcings will inevitably have a profound effect on the coastal zone. Given the continued growth of coastal ...

Coastal storm characterization and morphological impacts on sandy coasts

The present work deals with storm classification, using the Storm Power Index, and beach morphological response to storm events in the Gulf of Cadiz (SW Spain). Over the 1958–2001 period, 377 events divided into five classes ranging from ‘weak’ to ‘extreme’ were characterized. Classes I (weak) and II (moderate) accounted for 60% and 23% of events, respectively. Class III (significant), were 9% ...
