Abstract/Summary

Coastal systems are highly dynamic morphological environments due to erosion and sedimentation at different spatio-temporal scales as a result of natural forcing [1–3] and human interventions [4,5]. These morphodynamics are expected to increase in the future due to sea level rise and climate change [6], as well as other anthropogenic effects. Understanding the forcing factors, natural morphological evolution, and response to potential future forcing scenarios will help coastal policy makers to develop suitable adaptation strategies and to assure the sustainable use of coastal systems, enhancing the socio-economic and environmental benefits.
