The∼ 500-year historical record of seismicity along the central Chile coast (30–34° S) is
characterized by a series of∼ M 8.0–8.5 earthquakes followed by low tsunamis (< 4 m) …

The coasts of central Chile are increasingly affected by human activity. To date, there are no
clear symptoms of shoreline change in the area; however, the incidence of recent extreme …

Coastal erosion in 45 sandy beaches covering nearly 2000 km along the tectonically active
Chilean coast is assessed during the last four decades. The historical analysis is based on …

In recent years, the most popular methods for determining coastline course are geodetic,
satellite, and tacheometric techniques. None of the above-mentioned measurement …

Continued sea-level rise and coastal development have led to considerable concerns on
coastline changes along inhabited islands. Analysis of long-term coastline changes of …

The coastline is the boundary between the water surface in a reservoir or watercourse and
the land, which is characterised by high instability and functional diversity. For these …

The sea-level rise has intensified the erosion of coastal zones, whereby the coastal
management requires tools to evaluate and predict the dynamics of shoreline. In this paper …

The goal of this work is to estimate nearshore wave energy resources in central Chile with
high spatial resolution. Due to the lack of in situ measurements a suite of numerical models …

Para o planejamento e gestão efetivos da orla marítima, visando a implantação de obras de
engenharia para contenção da erosão e a manutenção da linha de praia, é imprescindível o …

Intertidal flats and marshes provide important ecosystem services to coastal and estuarine
societies, and have therefore been subject to extensive research. Most of these studies …
