Modelling the response of soft cliffs to climate change: a statistical, process-response model using accumulated excess energy
TL;DR: In this article, a new statistical, process-response model of soft cliff erosion is proposed, based on the premise that wave energy delivered to the cliff toe is the key parameter forcing erosion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of airborne LiDAR to investigate rates of recession in rocky coast environments
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used airborne LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data to gain a quantitative understanding of cliff erosion along rocky coastline where recession rates are relatively low (c. 0.1m/yr−1).

Influences of Wave Climate and Sea Level on Shoreline Erosion Rates in the Maryland Chesapeake Bay
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated spatial correlations between wave forcing, sea level fluctuations, and shoreline erosion in the Maryland Chesapeake Bay (CB), in an attempt to identify the most important relationships and their spatial patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of varied lithology on soft-cliff recession rates
TL;DR: In this paper, modifications to the 2D SCAPE (Soft Cliff and Platform Erosion) model were carried out to explore such interactions between vertical changes in cliff resistive strength and prevailing coastal conditions.

Pleistocene uplift, climate and morphological segmentation of the Northern Chile coasts (24°S–32°S): Insights from cosmogenic 10Be dating of paleoshorelines
Joseph Martinod,Vincent Regard,Rodrigo Riquelme,Germán Aguilar,Benjamin Guillaume,Sébastien Carretier,Joaquín Cortés-Aranda,Joaquín Cortés-Aranda,Laëtitia Léanni,Gérard Hérail +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present new cosmogenic exposure ages obtained on Pleistocene marine abrasion shore terraces of Northern Chile between 24°S and 32°S in order to evaluate the temporal and spatial variability of uplift rates along the coastal forearc.

Friction Factor under Oscillatory Waves
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between wave parameters and bottom friction and shear stresses is investigated in an oscillating water tunnel to determine the relationships between wave parameter and resulting bottom friction, and the results are compared with existing semitheoretical expressions.

Sea cliffs: Their processes, profiles, and classification
K. O. Emery,G. G. Kuhn +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the concavity or convexity of sea cliff profiles is controlled by relative rates of erosion by marine and subaerial processes, as well as positions of more resistant strata in the cliffs.

Recession Rate of Glacial Till Bluffs
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between waves and recession rate of cohesive bluff shorelines consisting of glacial till is explained in physical terms as a function of wave-foreshore interaction.
