Erosion and Sea Level Rise

Water, wind, and waves cause erosion and damage to structures and property.  Dynamic processes and the local  environment influence erosion, accretion, and property damage in distinct and unique ways at nearly every site location.

In addition, sea level is rising globally and will likely continue to rise for centuries.  Coastal residents and entire cities and regions will be under long term stress, threatened by both Sea Level Rise and extreme storms.  

At any particular location the situation is complex, where land level changes (like subsidence, glacial rebound, or tectonic uplift) and sediment dynamics (like local erosion or accretion) may be as important, or even more important, than global sea level rise!  Whether planning for the immediate future,  30 years, or 100 years, every site requires analysis of the complex and unique combination of factors in order to inform crucial decisions.
