EGSP20 - Coastal Chalk Cliff Instability
Edited by R. N. Mortimore & A. Duperret
List price £50.00; GSL members price £25.00
Most of the rocky coastlines around the world are subject to active erosion
processes. Because of the growing hazard to local communities from coastal
cliff retreat, it is necessary to investigate where, when and how cliffs
collapse. The results of these studies are vital for the planners and local
authorities responsible for safety and access to cliffs and beaches. This
volume focuses on the coastal chalk cliffs of the English Channel, where a
multidisciplinary approach has been used to understand active coastal cliff
recession.
The book is organized around three main themes: the geological factors
controlling cliff instability, the marine parameters influencing coastal
erosion and the use of some new tools for hazard assessments.
