Abstract

Coastal morphology has a natural dynamic balance being subject to the influence of various natural parameters such as sediment transport, wind and wave effects and currents. Short- and long-term coastal morphological changes are of great importance in coastal engineering applications. These changes can also be evaluated based on natural parameters using satellite remote sensing and digital image processing techniques.
