“…Consequently, the Black Sea and its coastal zone are very sensitive to climate change and anthropogenic forcing, and thus is an area that has attracted the considerable interest of scientists. Coastal erosion and saltwater intrusion are major threats for the Black Sea coasts [24][25][26][27]. It is known that an important part of the most critical coastal erosion areas in Europe is the Black Sea coastline [28], and in particular, some coastal zones such as those in Bulgaria, Romania, and Turkey have far less protection than in other places.…”

Global mean sea level has been rising at an increasing rate, especially since the early 19th century in response to ocean thermal expansion and ice sheet melting. The possible consequences of sea level rise pose a significant threat to coastal cities, inhabitants, infrastructure, wetlands, ecosystems, and beaches. Sea level changes are not geographically uniform. This study focuses on present-day sea level changes in the Black Sea using satellite altimetry and tide gauge data. The multi-mission gridded satellite altimetry data from January 1993 to May 2017 indicated a mean rate of sea level rise of 2.5 ± 0.5 mm/year over the entire Black Sea. However, when considering the dominant cycles of the Black Sea level time series, an apparent (significant) variation was seen until 2014, and the rise in the mean sea level has been estimated at about 3.2 ± 0.6 mm/year. Coastal sea level, which was assessed using the available data from 12 tide gauge stations, has generally risen (except for the Bourgas Station). For instance, from the western coast to the southern coast of the Black Sea, in Constantza, Sevastopol, Tuapse, Batumi, Trabzon, Amasra, Sile, and Igneada, the relative rise was 3.02, 1.56, 2.92, 3.52, 2.33, 3.43, 5.03, and 6.94 mm/year, respectively, for varying periods over 1922–2014. The highest and lowest rises in the mean level of the Black Sea were in Poti (7.01 mm/year) and in Varna (1.53 mm/year), respectively. Measurements from six Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) stations, which are very close to the tide gauges, also suggest that there were significant vertical land movements at some tide gauge locations. This study confirmed that according to the obtained average annual phase value of sea level observations, seasonal sea level variations in the Black Sea reach their maximum annual amplitude in May–June.

“…In literature found out studies using different methods and tools for analyzing the temporal changes of the coastline. The Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) tool, which can be added as a tool especially to ArcGIS software, contains several statistical methods within it: NSM, EPR, SCE, LRR, WLR, ECI, LSE/WSE, LR2/WR2 (Albuquerque et al, 2013;Ataol et al, 2019;Bera & Maiti, 2019;Beyazıt et al, 2014;Bheeroo et al, 2016;Erdem et al, 2018;Kale et al, 2019;Kılar & Çiçek, 2018Kılar & Çiçek, , 2019Kuleli et al, 2011;Nassar et al, 2019;Oyedotun, 2014;Thieler & Danforth, 1994;To & Thao, 2008). However, these tools and methods are mostly used in literature to detect natural coastal changes in areas of low coastal profile, such as delta and coastal lowlands.…”

“…For instance, through the use of open-access multitemporal satellite imagery, Mishra et al [27] evaluated the long-term to short-term dynamics of the coastal position of the Uri district in India over the past 25 years (1990-2015), deriving the explanation behind the changes such as human buildings and coastline erosion. Kale et al [28] researched the erosion rates and coastal variations on the Yesilirmak River on the northern coast of Turkey before 2017 to clearly demonstrate the effect of dam buildings on the data. oai et al [29] studied the changes in the coastline of the Ca Mau Cape in Vietnam over the past 20 years and concluded that forest area loss, river dredging, and aquaculture and infrastructure growth were the most significant factors influencing the changes in the coastline in the region.…”

This study focuses on the coastal features, environments, and dynamics to accurately describe and regularly monitor the Qingdao shoreline in eastern China. It collects categorical ETM+ and OLI data from 2000, 2010, and 2019 on the mainland coastline and explores the characteristics and spatiotemporal differences across the past 19 years by using remote sensing and geographic information system (GIS) technologies. The results show that the length of the Qingdao coastline has increased continuously over the last two decades, for a total increase of 18.14 km. There are different natural and artificial coastlines that have undergone major changes. The human-induced deterioration of coastlines has gradually and substantially risen from 53.63% in 2000 to 68.40% in 2019, while the length of the natural coastlines has decreased dramatically. Jiaozhou Bay focuses on areas with significantly changing coastlines, and major changes have occurred in the west and east of the Qingdao coast. The coastline has largely expanded seaward because of the comprehensive impact of natural and anthropogenic factors. The leading factor in coastal evolution is coastal engineering constructions. In addition, the top three other construction activities are the restoration of the aquaculture pond, salt field, and harbor edifices. The driving force that triggered the shift in the coastline reveals significant temporal heterogeneity.
