3.2.2. Shoreline Geometry: DSAS As a Tool for Historical Trend Analysis
© Author(s) 2014. CC Attribution 4.0 License. ISSN 2047-0371 3.2.2. Shoreline Geometry: DSAS as a Tool for Historical Trend Analysis Temitope D. T. Oyedotun1,2 1 Coastal and Estuarine Research Unit, Department of Geography, University College London ([email protected]) 2Department of Geography and Planning Sciences, Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko, Ondo State of Nigeria ([email protected]) ABSTRACT: Shoreline geometry remains one of the key parameters in the detection of coastal erosion and deposition and the study of coastal morphodynamics. The Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) as a software extension within the Environmental System Research Institute (ESRI) ArcGIS© has been used by many researchers in measuring, quantifying, calculating and monitoring shoreline rate-of-change statistics from multiple historic shoreline positions and sources. The main application of DSAS is in utilisation of polyline layers as representation of a specific shoreline feature (e.g. mean high water mark, cliff top) at a particular point in time. A range of statistical change measures are derived within DSAS, based on the comparison of shoreline positions through time. These include Net Shoreline Movement (NSM), Shoreline Change Envelope (SCE), End Point Rate (EPR), Linear Regression Rate (LRR) and Weighted Linear Regression Rate (WLR). Despite the inability of this tool to determine the forcing of morphodynamics, it has been shown to be effective in facilitating an in-depth analysis of temporal and historical movement of shoreline positions and cliff geometry. KEYWORDS: GIS, Historical Trend Analysis, DSAS, Shoreline Changes, transects. Introduction climates including marine, astronomical or other meteorological factors (Lisitzin, 1974; Coastal shorelines, the interface between Cowell and Thom, 1994; Pugh, 1996, 2004; land and sea, change variably in response to Paskoff and Clus-Auby, 2007; Pardo-Pascual one or more factors, which may be et al., 2012; Thébaudeau et al., 2013).

The nearby village of Crantock is only three miles from Newquay but is a world apart. A picturesque village with a historic heart, it has an ancient church, two pubs, a tea room, an art gallery, gift shop and a village store. Almost a stone’s throw from the property one can find The Bowgie Inn and the C-Bay bistro. Crantock Bay provides an ideal holiday destination for families. The beach at Crantock offers holiday makers and families over a mile of level high quality sand and sand dunes, with plenty of rock pools and caves to explore at low tide along the edges of the West Pentire and East Pentire headlands.

SMP2 6 Final Report
6 ACTION PLAN 6.1 Coastal risk management activities The Action Plan for the Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Shoreline Management Plan review provides the basis for taking forward the intent of management which is discussed and developed through Chapter 4 - and summarised through the preferred policy choices set out in Chapter 5. The SMP guidance states that the purpose of the Action Plan is to summarise the actions that are required before the next review of the SMP however in reality the Action Plan is looking much further into the future in order to provide guidance on how the overall management intent for 100 years may be taken forward. For Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly SMP the Action Plan is a critical element, because there are various conditional policies for later epochs which need to be more firmly established in the future based on monitoring and investigation. The Action Plan can set the framework for an on-going shoreline management process in the coming years, with SMP3 in 5 to 10 years time as the next important milestone. This chapter therefore attempts to capture all intended actions necessary, on a policy unit by policy unit basis, to deliver the objectives at a local level. It should also help to prioritise FCRM medium and long-term planning budget lines. A number of the actions are representative of on-going commitments across the SMP area (for example to South West Regional Coastal Monitoring Programme). There are also actions that are representative of wide-scale intent of management, for example in relation to gaining a better understanding of the roles played by the various harbours and breakwaters located around the coast in terms of coast protection and sea defence.

Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management
Appendix A - Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management The Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has overall responsibility for flood risk management in England. Their aim is to reduce flood risk by: • discouraging inappropriate development in areas at risk of flooding. • encouraging adequate and cost effective flood warning systems. • encouraging adequate technically, environmentally and economically sound and sustainable flood defence measures. The Government’s Foresight Programme has recently produced a report called Future Flooding, which warns that the risk of flooding will increase between 2 and 20 times over the next 75 years. The report produced by the Office of Science and Technology has a long-term vision for the future (2030 – 2100), helping to make sure that effective strategies are developed now. Sir David King, the Chief Scientific Advisor to the Government concluded: “continuing with existing policies is not an option – in virtually every scenario considered (for climate change), the risks grow to unacceptable levels. Secondly, the risk needs to be tackled across a broad front. However, this is unlikely to be sufficient in itself. Hard choices need to be taken – we must either invest in more sustainable approaches to flood and coastal management or learn to live with increasing flooding”. In response to this, Defra is leading the development of a new strategy for flood and coastal erosion for the next 20 years. This programme, called “Making Space for Water” will help define and set the agenda for the Government’s future strategic approach to flood risk. Within this strategy there will be an overall approach to the assessing options through a strong and continuing commitment to CFMPs and SMPs within a broader planning framework which will include River Basin Management Plans prepared under the Water Framework Directive and Integrated Coastal Zone Management.

CARBINIDAE of CORNWALL Keith NA Alexander
CARBINIDAE OF CORNWALL Keith NA Alexander PB 1 Family CARABIDAE Ground Beetles The RDB species are: The county list presently stands at 238 species which appear to have been reliably recorded, but this includes • Grasslands on free-draining soils, presumably maintained either by exposure or grazing: 6 which appear to be extinct in the county, at least three casual vagrants/immigrants, two introductions, Harpalus honestus – see extinct species above two synathropic (and presumed long-term introductions) and one recent colonist. That makes 229 resident • Open stony, sparsely-vegetated areas on free-draining soils presumably maintained either by exposure breeding species, of which about 63% (147) are RDB (8), Nationally Scarce (46) or rare in the county (93). or grazing: Ophonus puncticollis – see extinct species above Where a species has been accorded “Nationally Scarce” or “British Red Data Book” status this is shown • On dry sandy soils, usually on coast, presumably maintained by exposure or grazing: immediately following the scientific name. Ophonus sabulicola (Looe, VCH) The various categories are essentially as follows: • Open heath vegetation, generally maintained by grazing: Poecilus kugelanni – see BAP species above RDB - species which are only known in Britain from fewer than 16 of the 10km squares of the National Grid. • Unimproved flushed grass pastures with Devil’s-bit-scabious: • Category 1 Endangered - taxa in danger of extinction Lebia cruxminor (‘Bodmin Moor’, 1972 & Treneglos, 1844) • Category 2 Vulnerable - taxa believed
