Many coastal sand dune systems in the UK and other parts of the world have experienced a decline in bare sand extent and dune mobility over the past 70 years, accompanied by increased coverage of coarse grass, scrub and woodland vegetation. This has

The past few decades have seen a progressive reduction in the extent of mobile dune systems and early successional stage habitats in many parts of NW Europe. The evidence suggests that a number of factors have contributed to this process, but their r

An important question for coastal management concerns the importance of individual storms and clusters of storms on longer term beach sediment budgets, beach and dune erosion, and coastal flood risk. Between October 2013 and March 2014 a series of de

The Holderness coast is composed largely of ‘soft’ Quaternary sediments, mainly glacial till, which form cliffs up to 38 m high. Cliff erosion rates have shown a complex pattern of spatial and temporal variation over the past 160 years which refl

This paper provides an overview of the geomorphological characteristics of UK estuaries and the factors which control them. Many of the features included in previous classifications of UK estuaries are not true estuaries since they do not possess sig

Welsh coastal dune systems have become increasingly vegetated in recent decades. Several rare species of plants and invertebrates have declined dramatically in abundance, and in some areas lost entirely. Of the ten dune habitats and species recognize

This paper provides a review of different particle size scales, size class terminology and particle size distribution (‘textural’) classification schemes which are widely used in sedimentology, geomorphology, soil science, aquatic ecology and civ
