  • 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).

  • Launceston-And-Districts-Fallen-From-Both-World-Wars..Pdf
    This is not a complete record of all those that fell during the two wars, with some of the fallen having no information available whatsoever. However there are 222 names from within the district that I have been able to provide a narrative for and this booklet hopefully will provide a lasting memory for future generations to view and understand the lives behind the names on the various memorials around Launceston. It has not been easy piecing together the fragments of information particularly from the first world war where many records were destroyed in the blitz of the second world war, but there are many resources now available that do make the research a little easier. Hopefully over time the information that is lack- ing in making this a complete story will be discovered and I can bring all the re- cords up to date. Of course there have been many people that have helped and I would like to thank Peter Bailey, Claudine Malaquin, Dennis Middleton, Jim Edwards, Martin Kel- land, Grant Lethbridge Morris and Michael Willis for their invaluable help in compiling this homage plus the resources that are freely available at Launceston Library. My hope is that the people will find this a fascinating story to all these souls that bravely gave their lives in the service of their country and that when we come to remember them at the various remembrance services, we will actually know who they were. Roger Pyke 28th of October 2014. Launceston’s Fallen from World War One William Henry ADAMS William was born in 1886 at 14 Hillpark Cottages, Launceston to Richard and Jane Adams.
