    The publication includes two documents related to the socioeconomic benefits of metropolitan beaches: on the one hand, an evaluation of the economic value of the beaches in the metropolitan area of ​​Barcelona, ​​and on the other, a report on the socioeconomic impact of metropolitan beaches.

    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.

    Methodological report defining how to characterize flooding and erosion along the Catalan coast, considering present conditions and climate-change scenarios (SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5). It proposes combining wave and sea-level data (IH Cantabria, CNRM), calculating flood elevation (MM+MA+run-up+SLR), and using the XBeach model (1D/2D) to delineate hazard, alongside an approach to estimate erosion and assess risk in GIS.

    The Geoanthropic Map is a cartographic document with applied geothematic content in which the current state of the physical constitution of the territory is represented, at the appropriate scale for territorial planning, as a result of anthropogenic action on the geological environment and the geological conditions for human activity. It reflects those geological elements and processes that directly affect or may directly affect human activities, together with those human activities or actions that modify the morphological characteristics of the topographic surface or that may directly affect the physical properties and behavior of the natural terrain. The Geoanthropic Map includes elements typical of a geomorphological map, while, in the Anglo-Saxon sense of the term, it makes an inventory of natural geological processes and artificial interventions in the geological environment. It classifies natural processes according to their activity and orders them according to the areas of generation of the materials involved, the transport mechanisms, the areas of deposition and the characteristics and geological properties of the deposits. Similarly, it classifies artificial elements and deposits according to the activities that have generated them, to which they give or have given service. This map also includes geotechnical determinations, such as a map of lithological groups and structural elements, the degree of consolidation, the degree of weathering, the degree of rippability and other geomechanical properties of the materials.

    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.

    The map contains a detailed representation of the relief, depth, seabed type and marine habitats identified on the coast of Catalonia. The area surveyed was the entire Catalan coast up to 50 m depth. The Marine Habitats Map brings together the following data sets: Marine habitats (EUNIS classification level 3 and 4); Complementary marine habitats (EUNIS classification level 5); Seabed type; Coastal strip elevation model; and Bathymetry.

    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.
