Previous studies of the coastal dynamics of the metropolitan south
This technical report is an update and expansion of the preliminary studies for the stabilization of the beaches of Gavà and Viladecans, of December 2019. This new document analyzes the entire coastal section that extends from the mouth of the Llobregat river to Ginesta port and the evolution of the shoreline from 1990 to 2020, critical areas and related problems are identified with coastal stability, and action strategies are proposed that can solve the problem that has been identified.

- Statement
- Two datasets have been used to characterize the evolution of the coastline in the Llobregat delta coastal cell: The first dataset consists of a collection of edge lines covering the period 1990-2020. They have been obtained from the digitization of aerial photos taken by the Cartographic and Geological Institute of Catalonia and, additionally, some lines obtained by the Center for Studies and Experimentation of Public Works (CEDEX) have been used. The available years are the following: 1990, 1995, 2000, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020; The second set corresponds to a series of beach width measurements in a series of locations along the Llobregat coast that have been taken monthly by the Barcelona Metropolitan Area (AMB) during the period 2001-2021.
