Foredune morphological changes and beach recovery from the extreme 2013/2014 winter at a high-energy sandy coast

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analysed the beach-dune response at Truc Vert, SW France, using DGPS topographic surveys sampled every 2-4 weeks covering an alongshore distance of 1.5 km, combined with wave, tide and extreme water level hindcast and beach/dune photographs.

Shoreline Detection using Optical Remote Sensing: A Review

TL;DR: A state of the art review on image processing methods used for shoreline detection in remote sensing is presented, which starts with a review of different key concepts that can be used for Shoreline detection.

Understanding coastal change using shoreline trend analysis supported by cluster-based segmentation

TL;DR: In this paper, a cluster-based segmentation of shoreline behaviour is demonstrated with reference to a regional-scale case study of the Suffolk coast, eastern UK, covering the period 1881 to 2015.

Increased Winter‐Mean Wave Height, Variability, and Periodicity in the Northeast Atlantic Over 1949–2017

TL;DR: In this paper, a 69-year numerical weather and wave hindcast is used to investigate the interannual variability and trend of winter wave height along the west coast of Europe.

Storm Impact Scale for Barrier Islands

TL;DR: In this paper, a new scale is proposed that categorizes impacts to natural barrier islands resulting from tropical and extra-tropical storms, and the proposed scale is fundamentally different than existing storm-related scales in that the coupling between forcing processes and the geometry of the coast is explicitly included.

Beach and dune erosion during storm surges

Pier Vellinga
- 01 Nov 1982 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a large number of two-dimensional and three-dimensional mobile-bed model tests has been carried out to investigate the process of dune erosion and the state of art after a series of small-scale tests is summarized.

Beach–dune morphological relationships and erosion/accretion: An investigation at five sites in England and Wales using LIDAR data

TL;DR: In this paper, the critical relationship between beach and nearshore parameters and the erosion/accretion status of frontal dunes have been investigated using LIDAR data, complemented by data obtained from conventional topographic and bathymetric surveys, at five dune systems in England and Wales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trends in UK mean sea level revisited

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented estimates of rates of mean sea level (MSL) change around the UK, based on a larger tide gauge data set and more accurate analysis methods than have been employed so far.
