Report compiling and organising existing geophysical data and models for the Catalan coastline from ICGC and other entities, facilitating access and analysis within the SIDL project.
-
The study analyzes changes in the forest landscape of the Costa Brava over the past century through the comparison of historical and contemporary photographs. The results show a significant increase in forest cover, with the recovery of pine and oak forests, while agricultural areas have declined. This suggests a shift in land use and in the tourist perception of the landscape.
-
This study analyzes the historical management of coastal dune fields on the Catalan coast to understand their changes over time.

This data mainly includes: a map of sea surface temperature recorded the previous day in Catalonia, which is updated daily; a chart showing the daily average sea surface temperature in the Mediterranean, along with the annual trends from recent years and historical records from 1982 to 2019; and finally, another real-time map indicating the areas currently experiencing marine heatwaves. On the same website where this data is presented, more detailed information about this phenomenon can also be found.

This study analyzes geohistorical sources to understand coastal management of Sant Pere Pescador beach in the Gulf of Roses.

Extension report of the rapid response works for the late October and early November 2023 sea storms
Extension report of the rapid response works for the late October and early November 2023 sea storms of late October and early November 2023.

This study analyzes the evolution of the beach-dune systems in the Balearic Islands from 2000 to 2021, focusing on their geomorphological management.

The current sanitary crisis caused by the rapid expansion of COVID-19 offered the possibility of giving respite to dune systems and allowing their natural regeneration after the effects of storm Gloria. This storm affected the Levantine and Balearic coasts between January 21 and 23, and when some systems began to recover, intensive coastal management again compromised the integrity of dune systems. The urgency to have the systems "ready" for consumption and exploitation moves away from the concept of sustainable tourism management and does not contribute to climate change adaptation. In this work, et points out some management actions on emerged beaches that have taken place during lockdown and deconfinement. The study focus on three management actions that reveal malpractice, such as leveling and mechanical cleaning, the construction of breakwaters, and the removal of Posidonia oceanica. For this, several case studies representing some of the best-preserved beach-dune systems in Catalonia and the Balearic Islands have been chosen.
-
The study analyzes the influx and mobility of recreational and sports boats on the beaches and coves of the Baix Empordà coastline, as well as user behavior and the impact on ecosystems.

Report defining and applying a methodology to map coastal hazards (flooding, erosion, accretion) on 1:25,000 sheets for Roses, Castelló d’Empúries, Sant Pere Pescador and L’Escala, combining field data and models (SWAN, XBeach) and considering present and future scenarios (RCP8.5).
