Detection of Annual Coastal Boulder Mobility From 2017–2021 Remote Sensing Imagery (Gulf of Taranto, Mediterranean Sea) and Relation With Marine Weather Conditions
Marco Delle Rose
Abstract:Landward displacement of coastal boulders is a morphodynamic signature of inundation and erosion processes. The study of these movements can provide useful elements for coastal hazards assessment. In this note, using open-access remote sensing resources, the 2017 to 2021 annual mobility of medium, coarse, and very coarse boulders spread over about 100 km of the eastern coast of the Gulf of Taranto (Italy) is detected. A large interannual variability was found. As established by multi-temporal object-based imag… Show more
