Shorelines of sandy beaches are constantly adapting under the forcing of natural and anthropogenic processes. The aim of this study was to develop a methodology to statistically assess the shoreline resilience to storms at different time... more
De Waal, M.S., Barbados’ Natural Landscapes. Conditions for Pre-Colonial Settlement, Site Preservation and Archaeological Fieldwork. In: De Waal, M.S., Finneran, N., Reilly, M.C., Armstrong, D.V. and Farmer, K. (eds) 2019: Pre-Colonial... more
The article analyzes the contemporary processes of natural and human-induced shoreline dynamics between cape Kaliakra and cape Emine, Bulgarian Black Sea coastal zone. Main accent is put on the anthropogenic impact on beach... more
This study analyzes the characteristics of upwelling events during the northeast monsoon, as well as El-Niño impacts towards upwelling in the northwest Sabah, which is located in southern part of the South China Sea by combining remote... more
Large, artificial habitation platforms are widely distributed along the southern North Sea coasts. ln this article, we will focus on the less known, small medieval platforms situated further inland, on the edge of the extensive peat bogs... more
Erosion and accretion rate are found very high in the estuary of an active delta which can be observed by satellite imageries. According to the multispectral satellite imageries it is found that accretion of Domar Char (a little island... more
The petrographic composition and grain shape variability of beach gravels in the Pogorzelica-Dziwnów coast section (363.0 to 391.4 km of coastline), southern Baltic Sea, Poland were analyzed herein to characterize the lithodynamics and... more
Sabine Bank, a transgressive shoal located 30 km off the Louisiana-Texas border, USA, has been considered as one of the plausible resources for re-nourishment of the adjacent barrier islands and beaches. Little has been reported on the... more

Summary: An ever growing number of experts and specialists in modern territorial evolution use historical cartography as a primary source. We can say the same for those interested in the evolution of a coastline, not necessarily from an... more
Overwash hydrodynamics datasets are mixed in quality and scope, being hard to obtain due to fieldwork experimental difficulties. Aiming to overcome such limitations, this work presents accurate fieldwork data on overwash hydrodynamics,... more
For morphological behavior of coasts on the long term (years to decades), both storm events and daily conditions can play a role. It can be a challenge to combine the modeling of both types of conditions, because they act on different... more
Since 2010, the local press has been reporting an accelerated process of erosion on the sandy beach-es of the Costa Rican Caribbean coast, it has even been documented within protected areas. To quantify this process and... more

Angular unconformites between Jurassic and Miocene strata are exposed in the sea cliffs of Cala Cigonya on the northwest coast of Menorca in the Balearic Islands of Spain. The geological discontinuities represent rocky shores on opposite... more
