It assesses how the differences in the geomorphic setting, in comparison with traditional sandy beaches, result in distinctive physical processes governing the dynamics of these coasts. Further, on the basis of field measurements, theoretical analysis and numerical modeling carried out at two study sites in southern Spain over the last 15 years, the book studies, analyzes and compares these physical processes and mechanisms. It also shows that the narrow and complex bathymetries and inner shelves modify the wave propagation patterns and hence, the longshore sediment transport gradients along the coast. Given the correlation between the changes in these gradients and the shoreline evolution over time, it identifies the complexity of the inner shelf bathymetries as the main driver of coastal changes and describes these processes in detail using, in the plan view, the inter-annual evolution of unaltered and “altered by human” beaches. Lastly, the book details how the generation and subsequent overlapping of berms | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | Mixed sand and Mediterranean gravel beaches; Morphodynamics and beaches; Field measurements and Medite | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-52440-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-52439-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-52440-5Series ISSN 2191-5369 Series E-ISSN 2191-5377 | issn_series | 2191-5369 | copyright | The Author(s) 2017 |
