Journal ArticleDOI
Appropriate complexity for the prediction of coastal and estuarine geomorphic behaviour at decadal to centennial scales
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore some of the issues associated with the conceptualisation and modelling of coastal morphological change at time and space scales relevant to managers and policy makers and explore the limitations of a primary scale approach and the extent to which these can be resolved with reference to the concept of the coastal tract and application of systems theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-criteria evaluation approach to coastal vulnerability index development in micro-tidal low-lying areas
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed and implemented an updated set of indicators of coastal vulnerability that characterise relatively low-lying coastal segments with negligible tidal range but affected by substantial storm surges driven by atmospheric factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The morphological response of foredunes at a breached barrier system to winter 2013/2014 storms on the southwest coast of Ireland
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the geomorphic impacts of recent storms, including those that occurred during the winter 2013/2014, on a breached barrier on the southwest coast of Ireland.
Quantification of changes in the beach volume by the application of an inverse of the Bruun Rule and laser scanning technology
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors address the possibilities of combining terrestrial (TLS) and airborne laser scanning (ALS) techniques with the classical concept of equilibrium beach profile to quantify the changes in the total sand volume of slowly evolving sandy beaches.

The New (Ab)Normal: Outliers, Everyday Exceptionality, and the Politics of Data Management in the Anthropocene
TL;DR: The Anthropocene affects how we manage the environment in many ways, perhaps most importantly by undermining how past conditions act as baselines for future expectations as discussed by the authors, in a period when historica...
