Sandy beaches are highly dynamic systems which provide natural protection from the
impact of waves to coastal communities. With coastal erosion hazards predicted to increase …

Marine litter pollution on coastal dunes has received limited scientific attention when
compared with sandy shores. This paper proposes a new framework based on the …

Long-term and high-intensity coal mining has led to the increasingly serious surface
subsidence and environmental problems. Surface subsidence monitoring plays an important …

The degree of boulder mobility in response to coastal storms likely varies spatially and
temporally along rocky shorelines, but this is difficult to evaluate from field monitoring of …

Unequivocal change in the climate system has put coastal regions around the world at
increasing risk from climate-related hazards. Monitoring the coast is often difficult and …

Detailed knowledge of nearshore topography and bathymetry is required for a wide variety
of purposes, including ecosystem protection, coastal management, and flood and erosion …

Dune systems have recently become fundamental natural solutions for the protection of the
coast. The study of its morphodynamic features in storm situations is well documented in the …

At coasts, sandy beach-dune systems act as natural barriers to environmental forcing,
preventing coastal flooding and protecting coastal communities. In the context of coastal …

High-resolution aerial imagery captured from low altitudes enables the detailed
reconstruction of the geomorphological features of submerged beachrocks and the …

Sand dunes are commonly regarded as a challenge to traditional photogrammetry due their
homogeneous texture and spectral response. In this work we present an evaluation of …
