Hall Abstract Due to predicted sea level rise, increased storm frequency and coastal urbanisation, artificial coastal structures are proliferating worldwide. It is now vital to understand the impact that artificial structures are having on the marine environment and it is becoming increasingly necessary to incorporate ecologically enhanced designs into both new and existing coastal infrastructure. This thesis examines the communities associated with coastal artificial structures and trials ways in which we can improve the habitat provided for marine organisms. Firstly, the existing communities present on wooden and rock groynes within four regions along the south coast of England were surveyed and quantified and compared to natural rocky shores. The groynes were found to be less diverse than the natural rocky shores yet the wooden groynes supported a greater variety of species compared to the rock groynes. Secondly in order to assess the stability of individual populations, the variation in recruitment and mortality of the barnacle Semibalanus balanoides, and recruitment of the limpet Patella vulgata and the mussel Mytilus edulis were monitored on wooden and rock groynes within two regions and compared to natural rocky shores. High spatial variation in recruitment was observed, yet overall, communities on the groynes were comparably stable to those on the natural rocky shores. This thesis also investigates the impacts of artificial structures on surrounding mobile communities and their contribution into the food web. Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV) and Stable Isotope Analysis (SIA) were used to assess the distribution of mobile fauna around pleasure piers and to determine if the mobile fauna were using the pier as a feeding resource. The results showed a greater number of species in close proximity to the pier and the SIA found evidence of links between trophic levels of species collected on and around the piers. In order to assess the connectivity between populations, hydrodynamic and particle tracking models were used to determine the potential for artificial structures to act as stepping stones for the dispersal of native and non-native species. As the majority of artificial structures are known to lack biological diversity, this thesis explores how increasing the surface heterogeneity of rock armour using low cost enhancement options and improving water retention on seawalls by attaching artificial rock pools can improve diversity. The ecological enhancements attracted new species including mobile fauna which were previously absent and increased the overall diversity of the structures. To conclude the key findings are summarised and future work and management advice is outlined. iii BLANK iv Table of Contents Copyright statement……………………………………………………………………..…..…ii

  • Management of Coastal Erosion by Creating Large-Scale and Small-Scale Sediment Cells
    COASTAL EROSION CONTROL BASED ON THE CONCEPT OF SEDIMENT CELLS by L. C. van Rijn, www.leovanrijn-sediment.com, March 2013 1. Introduction Nearly all coastal states have to deal with the problem of coastal erosion. Coastal erosion and accretion has always existed and these processes have contributed to the shaping of the present coastlines. However, coastal erosion now is largely intensified due to human activities. Presently, the total coastal area (including houses and buildings) lost in Europe due to marine erosion is estimated to be about 15 km2 per year. The annual cost of mitigation measures is estimated to be about 3 billion euros per year (EUROSION Study, European Commission, 2004), which is not acceptable. Although engineering projects are aimed at solving the erosion problems, it has long been known that these projects can also contribute to creating problems at other nearby locations (side effects). Dramatic examples of side effects are presented by Douglas et al. (The amount of sand removed from America’s beaches by engineering works, Coastal Sediments, 2003), who state that about 1 billion m3 (109 m3) of sand are removed from the beaches of America by engineering works during the past century. The EUROSION study (2004) recommends to deal with coastal erosion by restoring the overall sediment balance on the scale of coastal cells, which are defined as coastal compartments containing the complete cycle of erosion, deposition, sediment sources and sinks and the transport paths involved. Each cell should have sufficient sediment reservoirs (sources of sediment) in the form of buffer zones between the land and the sea and sediment stocks in the nearshore and offshore coastal zones to compensate by natural or artificial processes (nourishment) for sea level rise effects and human-induced erosional effects leading to an overall favourable sediment status.

  • Animal Adaptations
    Animal Adaptations The Animal Adaptations program at Hatfield Marine Science Center is designed to be a 50- minute lab-based program for 3rd-12th grade students that examines marine organisms from three different habitats (sandy beach, rocky shore and estuary) and explores the many ways they are adapted to their particular environment. This lab focuses on the adaptations of several groups of marine animals including Mollusks, Crustaceans, and Echinoderms, and investigates how they differ depending on whether they are found in a sandy beach, rocky shore, or estuary environment. Students will work in small groups with a variety of live animals, studying individual characteristics and how these organisms interact with their environment and one another. Background Information The Oregon Coast is made up of a series of rocky shores, sandy beaches, and estuaries, all of which are greatly affected by fluctuating tides. Many of these areas are intertidal and are alternately inundated by seawater and exposed to air, wind, and dramatic changes in temperature and salinity. High tide floods these areas with cold, nutrient laden seawater, bringing food to organisms that live there in the form of plankton and detritus. Low tides often expose these organisms to the dangers of predation and desiccation. In addition to tidal effects, organisms that inhabit sandy beaches and rocky shores also have to deal with the physical stresses of pounding waves. Because of these harsh conditions, organisms have developed special adaptations that not only help them to survive but thrive in these environments. An adaptation is a physical or behavioral trait that helps a plant or animal survive in a specific environment or habitat.

  • Seashore the SANDYSEASHORE the Soilisinfertile, Anditisoften Windy, Andsalty
    SEASHORE DESCRIPTION The seashore is an area fi lled with an interesting mix of unique plants and animals that have adapted to cope with this environment. Living on the edge of the sea is not easy. The soil is infertile, and it is often windy, dry and salty. THE SANDY SEASHORE Along a sandy shore there are no large rocks, algae or tidal pools. The sandy seashore can be divided into four general zones: Intertidal, Pioneer, Fixed Dune and Scrub Woodland. 1. Intertidal Zone: Between the low tide and the high tide mark is the intertidal zone. When the tide goes out the creatures living in this zone are left stranded. They have to endure the heat of the sun and the higher salinity of the water resulting from evaporation. Notice the many small holes on a sandy beach; they are the doorways to the homes of many animals which burrow under the sand where it is cooler. Some of Ecosystems of The Bahamas the creatures living in this zone are sea worms, sand fl eas and sand crabs. 2. Pioneer Zone: So named because it is where the fi rst plants to try to grow over sand. These plants must adapt to loose, shifting sand and poor soil. There is no protection from wind or salt spray. Plants here are usually low growing vines with waxy leaves. Some plants found in the pioneer zone are Purple seaside bean (C. rosea), Saltwort (Batis maritima), Goat's foot (Ipomea pes-caprae), and Sea purslane (Sesuvium portulacastrum). 3. Fixed Dune Zone: The next zone is the fi xed dune, so named because as the plants in the pioneer zone grip the sand around their roots and make the beach more stable, the sand mounds up into small humps or dunes.

  • 1 the Influence of Groyne Fields and Other Hard Defences on the Shoreline Configuration
    1 The Influence of Groyne Fields and Other Hard Defences on the Shoreline Configuration 2 of Soft Cliff Coastlines 3 4 Sally Brown1*, Max Barton1, Robert J Nicholls1 5 6 1. Faculty of Engineering and the Environment, University of Southampton, 7 University Road, Highfield, Southampton, UK. S017 1BJ. 8 9 * Sally Brown ([email protected], Telephone: +44(0)2380 594796). 10 11 Abstract: Building defences, such as groynes, on eroding soft cliff coastlines alters the 12 sediment budget, changing the shoreline configuration adjacent to defences. On the 13 down-drift side, the coastline is set-back. This is often believed to be caused by increased 14 erosion via the ‘terminal groyne effect’, resulting in rapid land loss. This paper examines 15 whether the terminal groyne effect always occurs down-drift post defence construction 16 (i.e. whether or not the retreat rate increases down-drift) through case study analysis. 17 18 Nine cases were analysed at Holderness and Christchurch Bay, England. Seven out of 19 nine sites experienced an increase in down-drift retreat rates. For the two remaining sites, 20 retreat rates remained constant after construction, probably as a sediment deficit already 21 existed prior to construction or as sediment movement was restricted further down-drift. 22 For these two sites, a set-back still evolved, leading to the erroneous perception that a 23 terminal groyne effect had developed. Additionally, seven of the nine sites developed a 24 set back up-drift of the initial groyne, leading to the defended sections of coast acting as 1 25 a hard headland, inhabiting long-shore drift.

  • PROTISTS Shore and the Waves Are Large, Often the Largest of a Storm Event, and with a Long Period
    (seas), and these waves can mobilize boulders. During this phase of the storm the rapid changes in current direction caused by these large, short-period waves generate high accelerative forces, and it is these forces that ultimately can move even large boulders. Traditionally, most rocky-intertidal ecological stud- ies have been conducted on rocky platforms where the substrate is composed of stable basement rock. Projec- tiles tend to be uncommon in these types of habitats, and damage from projectiles is usually light. Perhaps for this reason the role of projectiles in intertidal ecology has received little attention. Boulder-fi eld intertidal zones are as common as, if not more common than, rock plat- forms. In boulder fi elds, projectiles are abundant, and the evidence of damage due to projectiles is obvious. Here projectiles may be one of the most important defi ning physical forces in the habitat.

Under evaluation is a distinct coastal boulder bed (CBB) derived from banded rhyolite with boulders arrayed in a partial-ring configuration against one side of the headland on Ensenada Almeja (Clam Bay) north of Loreto. Preconditions related to the thickness of rhyolite flows and vertical fissures that intersect the flows at right angles along with the specific gravity of banded rhyolite delimit the size, shape and weight of boulders in the Almeja CBB. Mathematical formulae are applied to calculate the wave height generated by storm surge impacting the headland. The average weight of the 25 largest boulders from a transect nearest the bedrock source amounts to 1200 kg but only 30% of the sample is estimated to exceed a full metric ton in weight.

  • Marine Biological Investigations in the Bahamas 23. Description of the Littoral Zonation at Nine Bahamian Rocky-Shore Localities
    Marine biological investigations in the Bahamas 23. Description of the littoral zonation at nine Bahamian rocky-shore localities Hans Brattström Brattström H. 1999. Description of the littoral zonation at nine Bahamian rocky-shore localities. SARSIA Sarsia 84:319-365. Nine typical, more or less vertical, rocky-shore localities were visited in April-May 1967, and one of these was revisited in March 1968. The topographies of the stations are described and illustrated, and the vertical zonation of their flora and fauna is documented. On the whole the flora and fauna at the stations investigated was fairly poor. At least 37 species of algae and 85 animal species were recorded, but only 15 algae and 71 animals could be identified to species. Most of the algae were too undeveloped or grazed down to permit a reliable identification. Only half as many species were found at these nine stations as were found on three almost horizontal beach-rock stations described in an earlier article. Whereas many of the latter lived in a system of cavities below the rocks, all species found on the nine vertical stations were exposed to waves and the hot midday sun. The common yellow, black, grey, and white zones typical of the Bahamas, were often well-devel- oped. Some algae and many of the animals formed distinct belts within these zones, the higher up the more exposed the rocks were. Though tides and exposure presumably are responsible for the general zonation pattern, it is likely that in the cirripeds and vermetids the way of food-intake determines their upper limit.

  • Rocky Intertidal Sensitivity
    Rocky Intertidal1 Executive Summary The rocky intertidal habitat consists of Rocky Intertidal Score Confidence rocky substrate found between high and low tide water levels. This habitat has a Sensitivity 4 Moderate-High 2 Moderate transcontinental geographic extent, is Exposure 4 Moderate-High 2 Moderate moderately continuous throughout the Adaptive Capacity 4 Moderate-High 2 Moderate study region, and is considered to be in Vulnerability 3 Moderate 2 Moderate relatively pristine condition by workshop participants. Key climate sensitivities identified for this habitat by workshop participants includes air temperature, salinity, wave action, pH, and erosion. Key non-climate sensitivities include armoring, pollution/oil spills, recreation/trampling, and invasive species/species range expansions. Rocky intertidal habitat is widespread, continuous, and a dominant feature of the study region, composing 39% of the shoreline. This system generally displays high recovery potential, in part due to species’ short lifespans and high fecundity, as well as high species diversity, due to the diversity in substrate type. Community dynamics are dependent on the abundance, distribution, and interactions of the California mussel (Mytilus californianus) and the ochre sea star (Pisaster ochraceus). Management potential is considered low due to the inability to prevent climate impacts from affecting the habitat. However, societal value for this habitat is considered high due to its importance in research, recreation, and harvest. Sensitivity I. Sensitivities

  • Shoreline Stabilisation
    Section 5 SHORELINE STABILISATION 5.1 Overview of Options Options for handling beach erosion along the western segment of Shelley Beach include: • Do Nothing – which implies letting nature take its course; • Beach Nourishment – place or pump sand on the beach to restore a beach; • Wave Dissipating Seawall – construct a wave dissipating seawall in front of or in lieu of the vertical wall so that wave energy is absorbed and complete protection is provided to the boatsheds and bathing boxes behind the wall for a 50 year planning period; • Groyne – construct a groyne, somewhere to the east of Campbells Road to prevent sand from the western part of Shelley Beach being lost to the eastern part of Shelley Beach; • Offshore Breakwater – construct a breakwater parallel to the shoreline and seaward of the existing jetties to dissipate wave energy before it reaches the beach; and • Combinations of the above. 5.2 Do Nothing There is no reason to believe that the erosion process that has occurred over at least the last 50 years, at the western end of Shelley Beach, will diminish. If the water depth over the nearshore bank has deepened, as it appears visually from aerial photographs, the wave heights and erosive forces may in fact increase. Therefore “Do Nothing” implies that erosion will continue, more structures will be threatened and ultimately damaged, and the timber vertical wall become undermined and fail, exposing the structures behind the wall to wave forces. The cliffs behind the wall will be subjected to wave forces and will be undermined if they are not founded on solid rock.
