Abstract:
Coastal erosion is a natural phenomenon that is becoming a growing problem along coastlines around the world. In this research, the evolution of two beaches located in Benidorm (Spain) has been studied: Poniente Beach and Levante Beach. Both have similar characteristics, but present a different morphological behaviour. An analysis of shoreline evolution has been carried out using aerial images. Then, waves and incident storms were studied and, finally, a sedimentological analysis was performed. From the results obtained, the eastern zone of Poniente Beach presents higher rates of erosion than

Abstract:
Beach nourishment projects can develop localized, high erosion areas known as erosional hotspots. These regions are likely to pose a recurring beach management issue requiring either additional fill in future nourishments or stabilization with structures. In some instances, coastal structures have been viewed with a poor reputation for being overused and misunderstood. It is commonly known that they can result in trapping sand at the expense of the downdrift beach. This is also true of other coastal structures such as breakwaters that slow the transport of sand, and seawalls or revetments that

Although eroded beaches can be restored in many ways, beach nourishment is the preferred method of shore protection in the United States (Elko et al., 2021). While evaluating the performance of constructed beach nourishment projects, additional attention is generally given to the development of erosional hot spots (EHS) within the project boundaries. EHS erodes faster than the average rate of the project erosion and can negatively affect the overall performance of a beach nourishment project. Several parameters have been historically used to identify EHS such as percentage of fill remaining in

Therefore, the sand volume on the dry beach and the dune constitutes a sediment budget to fight against winter erosion. During calm weather periods, the sediment eroded is slowly recovered through accretion processes. Depending on the magnitude of the erosion produced, the full recovery of the sand may take months, several years or remain unachievable without human intervention. Nature-assisted beach enhancement

Abstract:
AbstractA progradational regime of falling sea level and/or high sediment input has produced extensive beach ridge plains in northwest Alaska during the last 4000 yr. Eleven Chukchi Sea beach ridge complexes, oriented at various angles to wind fetch, provide a cumulative history of longshore transport and erosion. Archaeological and geological upper limiting radiocarbon ages (n = 59) allow correlations between depositional units on seven beach ridge complexes. Progradation started 4000 yr B.P. at nearly all complexes, as eustatic sea level stabilized. Two disconformities or truncations are fou

Abstract:
The Yucatan coastline has been experiencing beach erosion during the past few decades; the erosion has reached critical points at some locations such as the Chelem beach, located near the Progreso Pier. Despite this problem, only few studies have been devoted in order to investigate the role of coastal structures on explaining the high erosion rates reported at this location. Therefore, the aim of this work is to evaluate the effects of the Progreso Pier on the wave transformation and alongshore sediment transport in the study area.

Abstract:
Beach accretion and/or erosion are evident on the Kenyan shoreline leading to loss of the aesthetic value of the beaches and destruction of shoreline properties. It is more prevalent on the Bamburi shoreline, which is about 4km long, and has been attributed to anthropogenic and natural processes that interfere with longshore drift depriving the beaches of sediments. Inadequate hazard assessments of the morphological processes on the beaches have made shoreline management interventions impracticable. Hazard vulnerability assessment obtained from the mean beach sediment volume was used to unders

The Albany Beach Restoration Project was initiated with the goal of stopping landfill erosion into San Francisco Bay, while creating aquatic habitat, and nourishing a pocket beach at McLaughlin Eastshore State Park, Albany, California. The site contains an existing sandy pocket beach which is unique to San Francisco Bay, and was formed by construction of the Albany Neck and Bulb, which was created as a landfill. Coastal engineering analysis, numerical modeling of coastal processes, and pocket beach morphology modeling were performed to evaluate and protect against erosion on the Albany Neck an

Abstract:
Focused local beach and dune erosion hamper coastal safety in certain vulnerable areas. Erosion hotspots are observed as 300-500 m stretches of coastline with greater levels of erosion than adjoining coastlines. Two erosion hotspots are identified, one on the mid Danish west coast (Ndr. Thorsminde Tange) and one on a north-facing beach in northern Jutland (Tversted). Two erosion hotspots, with different wave climates, are observed and analysed to better understand their controlling mechanisms. Forecasting erosion hotspots’ location and behaviour could be valuable for coastal safety in these ar

Abstract:
A natural beach system is in equilibrium when there is a balance between sand supply and erosion such that the volumes of material entering and leaving the system are just equal. If the erosion rate exceeds the supply rate, a beach retrogrades; if the erosion rate is less than the supply rate, a beach progrades. Unfortunately, coastal engineering works, which are meant to improve the shore for commerce or recreation, often upset this delicate balance with very deleterious results: great accretions of sand and high dredging costs, accelerated beach erosion and much property damage.

Incompatibility and deficiency in building construction along the coast can be detected by observing shoreline changes that happen before and after construction. Along with technology advances and science, coastline change can be detected by using numerical modeling. Beach in Kuta District in the Bali Province is a tourist destination that has a coastal erosion problem.

Abstract:
When erosion occurs, sandy beach cannot maintain the sufficient sand width and the foreshore slope becomes steeper by the frequent erosion effect. As a result, the beach is trapped in a vicious circle of becoming vulnerable by the incident waves. In order to repair or protect the erosive beach, beach nourishment can be used as a countermeasure while minimizing the environmental impacts. However, beach nourishment is not a permanent solution and requires periodic renourishment after several years. To alleviate such problem, minimizing the period of renourishment must be an economical alternativ

Abstract:
We performed experiments in the laboratory under controlled conditions in order to determine the applicability of a sub-sand filter system to the beach erosion control work. The filter system is used to control a flow condition at the sediment-fluid boundary. In the foreshore, it increases the inflowing velocity into the beach and thus results in increasing the threshold of beach sediment movement. The sub-sand filter system accelerates accretion of much beach sediment in the foreshore through the development of a berm under normal wave conditions. When wave conditions change from normal to st

Abstract Surveys of the subaerial beach (e.g., landward of approximately the MSL depth contour) are widely used to evaluate temporal changes in sand levels over large alongshore reaches. Here, seasonal beach face volume changes based on full bathymetry beach profiles (to ~8 m in depth) are compared with estimates based on the subaerial section of the profile. The profiles span 15 years and 75 km of Southern California shoreline, where seasonal vertical fluctuations in near-shore sand levels of a few meters are common. In years with relatively low winter wave energy, most erosion occurs above t

Climate change driven variations in these environmental forcing’s will inevitably have a profound effect on the coastal zone. They will result in unprecedented coastal recession, threatening billions of dollars worth of coastal developments and infrastructure. Coastal erosion is observed in some locations along Atlantic alluvial plain (Kenitra coastal (Morocco)) and is an important factor to consider for the coastal zone management.
