Countries in the Caribbean region, including Belize, are vulnerable to coastal erosion. Experts and scholars have assessed the effects of coastal erosion in the region in physical and economic terms, most often from a sectoral perspective. However, less attention has been directed to the localized and nonquantifiable effects of coastal erosion in the region. We address this research gap by presenting an empirical study of a village in southern Belize that has experienced significant coastal erosion since the mid-1980s. Drawing on interviews, a mapping exercise, and a literature review, we analyze how villagers are experiencing the impacts of coastal change, and what the resulting risks and losses mean for the socioeconomic stability of the village. We...

Coastal boulder deposits (CBD), transported by waves at elevations above sea level and substantial distances inland, are markers for marine incursions. Whether they are tsunami or storm deposits can be difficult to determine, but this is of critical importance because of the role that CBD play in coastal hazard analysis. Equations from seminal work by Nott (1997), here referred to as the Nott Approach, are commonly employed to calculate nominal wave heights from boulder masses as a means to discriminate between emplacement mechanisms. Systematic review shows that this approach is based on assumptions that are not securely founded and that direct relationships cannot be established between boulder measurements and wave heights. A test using an unprecedented...

Submarine platform development by erosion of a Surtseyan cone at Capelinhos, Faial Island, Azores
Provedor de dados: 5
Autores: Zhao, Zhongwei; Mitchell, Neil C.; Quartau, Rui; Tempera, Fernando; Bricheno, Lucy.
Erosion of volcanic islands ultimately creates shallow banks and guyots, but the ways in which erosion proceeds to create them over time and how the coastline retreat rate relates to wave conditions, rock mass strength and other factors are unclear. The Capelinhos volcano was formed in 1957/58 during a Surtseyan and partly effusive eruption that added an ~2.5 km2 tephra and lava promontory to the western end of Faial Island (Azores, central North Atlantic). Subsequent coastal and submarine erosion has reduced the subaerial area of the promontory and created a submarine platform. This study uses historical information, photos and marine geophysical data collected around the promontory to characterize how the submarine platform developed following the...

Autores: Henaff, Alain; Le Cornec, Erwan; Jabbar, Marie; Petre, Anne; Corfou, Jeremy; Le Drezen, Yann; Van Vliet-lanoe, B.
Knowledge regarding the systemic vulnerability of coastal territories to erosion and flood has progressed during the last decades thanks to the consideration of hazards but also of other components such as the stakes, the management and the social representations of the coastal risks. However, in numerous cases the development and urbanization of coastal territories submitted to the coastal risks continues. It results in the increase of exposed populations as well as in the increase of the cost of exposed properties, increasing in return their vulnerability. So, in the objective to improve the management strategies and to strengthen the memory of the risk, the need to specify the characteristics of hazards remains important. In this sense, the intensity,...

A comprehensive hydro-geomorphic study of cliff-top storm deposits on Banneg Island during winter 2013–2014
Provedor de dados: 5
Autores: Autret, Ronan; Dodet, Guillaume; Fichaut, Bernard; Suanez, Serge; David, Laurence; Leckler, Fabien; Ardhuin, Fabrice; Ammann, Jerome; Grandjean, Philippe; Allemand, Pascal; Filipot, Jean-francois.
Large clastic cliff-top storm deposits (called CTSDs) are one of the most remarkable signatures that characterizes extreme storm wave events on coastal cliffs. Hence, the study of CTSDs is of key importance for understanding and predicting the impacts of extreme storm wave events on rocky coasts or establishing proxies for storm intensity. The present study uses new data including hydrodynamic measurements in both deep and intertidal waters, and records of CTSDs displacement and deposition across Banneg Island during the stormy winter 2013–2014. Two drone-based surveys were carried out in January 2013 (pre-storms) and in April 2014 (post-storms). In addition, complementary field observations were carried out during the winter, providing a comprehensive and...

Geomorfología y dinámica costera
Provedor de dados: 20
Autores: Codignotto, J.
In Argentine coastal areas, geomorphological changes are directly related to relative continental uplifts and falls and to seaward and landward displacement of the coastline. Accretional and erosional phenomena are produced by displacement of the coastline in horizontal way. The resultant structures can be represented in two principal sectors. Backward motion or retrogradation of about 15 km were estimated for the Strait of Magellan, over an area of 500 km 2.Otherwise, large accretional phenomena were recognized in the north,with a 60 km seaward displacement, equivalent to 4,000 km2 in the last7.000 years. Variation in tidal regime and amplitude is reflected in the coincidence of the boundary between accretion and erosional sectors. Two principal nearshore...

Remote Sensing for Studying Nearshore Bottom Morphology and Shoreline Changes
Provedor de dados: 20
Autores: Shaghude, Y.W.
The major objective of the present study is to demonstrate how remote sensing approach can be used for studying nearshore bottom morphology and shoreline changes in coastal Tanzania. Two study sites were used. In the first site, remote sensing satellite Landsat Thematic Mapper data was evaluated against known water depths from conventional echo sounding measurement taken on the eastern side of the channel. The correlation between the remote sensing data and the echo sounding mesurement was rather satisfactory, suggesting that the approach can roughly be used to investigate sea bottom morphology in the nearshore areas. In the second study site, remote sensing satellite data from Landsat Thematic Mapper and Enhanced Thematic Mapper were used to investigate...

Evolución morfológica de la costa en la Península de Santa Elena: evidencias de plataformas marinas y socavones superpuestos
Provedor de dados: 20
Autores: Santana, E.; Dumont, J.F.; Armas, V.; Burbano, L.; Gutiérrez, L.; Valdez, F.
En esta publicación se presentarán los elementos de morfología costera observados en la costa norte de la Península de Santa Elena. A largo plazo esta es una costa con alta variabilidad, pues estaba sumergida o compuesta por varias islas durante el cuaternario reciente (Pedoja, 2003). Dos preguntas básicas han sido planteadas en la ejecución de este estudio, la primera responder si esta alta variabilidad a largo plazo esta reflejada en la costa actual, y la segunda, si las morfologías costeras de plataformas litorales de abrasión son parte del proceso de la evolución costera.

Coastal Erosion Management from a Community Economics Perspective: The Feasibility and Efficiency of User Fees
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Kriesel,   Warren; Landry,   Craig E.; Keeler,   Andrew G.
Coastal communities cannot depend on funding from the state or federal government to maintain high-quality beaches that benefit the public and attract tourist revenues.  This article investigates the feasibility and efficiency of beach improvement projects at two Georgia barrier islands through the alternative funding mechanisms of general-revenue financing and user fees.  Benefits are calculated from observable sources.  The analyses presented support beach improvement as an effective policy on both islands under all scenarios considered.

Expanding the National Flood Insurance Program to Cover Coastal Erosion Damage
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Keeler,   Andrew G.; Kriesel,   Warren; Landry,   Craig E.
This paper uses the results of a nationwide survey of coastal property owners to estimate the demand for insurance against erosion damage.  The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) does not technically cover such damage, although in practice there is considerable uncertainty about this point.  The ability to insure against such losses has implications for the choice of beach management strategies and for NFIP management.  We find significant demand for insurance at prices in the range of current flood insurance premiums, although median willingness to pay appears to be less than cost of providing such insurance.
