Realizing the Benefits of Shoreline Management
Some 70 per cent of the world's shorelines are in recession (Bird, 1985). This is likely to be exacerbated if sea levels rise as a result of global warming; particularly in flat, low-lying regions. In recent years methods of coastal engineering have moved from 'hard' sea-wall type solutions toward so called 'soft' techniques, such as beach nourishment. These demand a much better understanding of the coastal processes that prevail. By acknowledgin…
Shoreline Adjustments and Coastal Management
The physical responses to predicted sea-level rise are examined using examples from the south-east coast of Britain where tectonically induced sea level rise are already equivalent to those predicted under the global warming hypothesis. Intertidal profiles on this coast are shifting both upwards and shorewards while estuarine channels are becoming wider and shallower. These natural changes are interrupted by the presence of flood embankments whic…
