This study analyzes geohistorical sources to understand coastal management of Sant Pere Pescador beach in the Gulf of Roses.
-
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 evolution of the beach-dune systems in the Balearic Islands from 2000 to 2021, focusing on their geomorphological management.
-
Information regarding an area exposed to an avalanche. Mapped based on analysis of the terrain and of signs that avalanches leave in their path, mainly, in forests. In Avalanche Zones, avalanches occur frequently and are of different sizes. Avalanche Zones have been systematically mapped throughout the region. They are shown in orange. There are two types of Avalanche Zones: zones where avalanches usually follow the same path, shown in orange, and zones where avalanches usually follow different paths, shown in pale orange.
-
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.
-
The study focuses on floristic diversity and impacts on dune systems along the Catalan coast. Twenty-one dune-restricted plant species were identified as indicators of ecological integrity. A new index was applied to measure species diversity relative to total site biodiversity. Results indicate that dunes with less human activity retain more native species.
-
Inventory of defence structures built to reduce the risk of avalanches. Single and lineal structures are documented, such as artificial avalanche release systems, road barriers, breakers, deflection structures, retention nets, screens, wind baffles, deflectors, rigid and flexible barriers, retention walls, reforestation and controlled areas.
-
This study assesses the changes in coastal dune landscapes in Catalonia, based on photographic, cartographic, and documentary sources between 1890 and 1960, comparing them with the current status of dunes.
-
This study analyzes the historical transformation and current situation of the dune landscape in Catalonia.
-
This study analyzes the sediment loss associated with the removal of Syringodium filiforme berms from 10 beaches in the Dominican Republic. The results show that approximately 63.8% of the removed volume corresponds to interspersed sediment. This type of management has a continuous morphological impact, affecting the stability of the system's sediment balance.
