To satisfy the commercial demands of expanding economies, coastal and nearshore environments have experienced an unprecedented degree of constructional change over past decades in many parts of the world. Among the most important physical responses triggered by human interventions in the coastal zone are changes in flow patterns, morphodynamics, and sediment budgets. The aim of this project is to carry out specific case studies using new, sophisticated survey techniques by which physical changes produced by human interventions in the coastal zone can be documented and quantified.
