| Popis: | Based on the interpretation of vertical video images taken from an helicopter, a geornorphological survey of the coast of Isla del Carmen, Campeche, was made in connection with hurricane "Roxanne" Geomorphological processes and derived coastal fandforms are identified, which indicate a general receding trend of the coastline during the event, although some local accumulative features are recognized. The most affected areas correspond to ancient channels, today closed, reactivated during extraordinary storm events. Some conclusions area also drawn in relation to the use of video images as a tool for a rapid assessment and detection of damages to infrastructure. |
