26 Φεβ 2020 · We use Sentinel-1 satellite radar imagery to monitor shoreline changes through clouds and propose regression discontinuity as a strategy to estimate the causal effect of large storms on beach erosion. Applied to 75 beaches across Puerto Rico, the approach detects shoreline changes with a root-mean-square error comparable to the resolution of ...

The purpose of erosion control and sediment prevention planning is to clearly establish the control measures, which are intended to prevent erosion and offsite sedimentation during construction.
Learn about the range of living shoreline techniques that can be used to reduce erosion and storm damage and enhance the natural environment. A continuum of green to gray shoreline stabilization techniques, including soft (green), hybrid, and hard (gray) armoring techniques.
28 Μαρ 2019 · Sandy beaches are the most common coastal type (30%) followed by the vegetated (28%) type (primarily consisting of wetlands and mangroves) and rocky shorelines (15%) which include volcanic ...
6 Νοε 2021 · Hurricane Maria caused more erosion along 35 percent of the coast, according to a 2020 study by the University of Puerto Rico.
beach changes and accretion were identified in beaches with natural barriers, such as coral reefs and mangroves, mainly located in the northeast and southwest of the island.
26 Φεβ 2020 · Key Points. Hurricane Maria caused immediate beach loss of 3 to 5 m in Puerto Rico, with very large local disparities. Sentinel 1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can accurately monitor shoreline changes in cloudy conditions.
