This paper presents an assessment of community resilience to coastal hazards in the Lower Mississippi River Basin (LMRB) region in southeastern Louisiana. The assessment was conducted at the census block group scale. The specific purpose of this study was... see more

The Commission on the Coastal Environment, one of the oldest commissions of the lnternational Geographical Union, is issuing a new volume of its quadrennial International Bibliography on Coastal Geomorphology, whose editor is Professor J.F. Araya-Vergara ... see more

This paper describes results of two surveys of southern California municipal planners to determine their degree of emphasis given to coastal hazards within their jurisdictions. With growing property losses associated with the coastal zones of southern Cal... see more

Due to the effects of climate change over the course of the next century, the combination of rising sea levels, severe storms, and coastal change will threaten the sustainability of coastal communities, development, and ecosystems as we know them today. T... see more

Coastal environments are characterized by their high dynamism, related to the interaction between marine agents (winds, waves, currents, sea level changes) and continental forms and processes. The present article summarizes the main morphodynamic characte... see more

The diversity function of coastal areas requires the increasing need for land and infrastructure that will lead to new problems such as changes in coastal morphology, the occurrence of erosion and accretion, which is supported by the population growth cau... see more

Many different technologies exist to adapt to natural coastal hazards. These technologies can also play an important part in reducing vulnerability to climate change in coastal zones. Technologies are available to develop information and awareness for ada... see more

The paper highlights the broad hydrogeomorphological characteristics of the Cox's Bazar coast of Bangladesh. High resolution air photographs of 1:20000 were interpreted for delineating the geomorphological boundaries of the coastal plain. Sediment samples... see more

A methodological framework for the determination of environmental quality in coastal areas is presented. The method is based on the identification of a series of characteristics (e.g. water quality, hazard level, potential for use) which can be used to de... see more
