Establishing Historical Shoreline Trends for Adaption of Maritime Built Heritage to Climate Change Part 2
Kenya’s northern coast is confined to a narrow continental shelf dominated by high wave action. As a result, uncertainty surrounding rising sea levels makes conservation of maritime historic buildings, monuments and archaeology pertinent, yet challenging. Maritime antiquities are increasingly exposed to intrusive driven chemical weathering, damage which requires immediate remediation. To prioritize adaptation strategies along Kenya’s 584 km coast…
Determination of Shoreline Variability for Adaptation of Maritime Built Heritage to Climate Change
Erosion, shoreline retreat and accelerated beach loss at maritime heritage sites in Southern Kenya, is on the rise. Consequences ranging from gradual decay, collapse to outright catastrophic loss of pillars, mosques, tombs, wells and historic ruins are indicative of absent coastal management and climate adaptation plans. Unfortunately, the susceptibility of this heritage to suffer damage remains high due to its location, age, material and methods…
