Identifying mechanisms of shore platform erosion using Structure-from-Motion (SfM) photogrammetry (2019)
Journal Article
Swirad, Z., Rosser, N., & Brain, M. (2019). Identifying mechanisms of shore platform erosion using Structure-from-Motion (SfM) photogrammetry. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 44(8), 1542-1558. https://doi.org/10.1002/esp.4591

Shore platforms control wave energy transformation which, in turn, controls energy delivery to the cliff toe and nearshore sediment transport. Insight into shore platform erosion rates has conventionally been constrained at mm-scales using micro-eros...

What controls the geometry of rocky coasts at the local scale? (2016)
Journal Article
Swirad, Z., Rosser, N., Brain, M., & Vann Jones, E. (2016). What controls the geometry of rocky coasts at the local scale?. Journal of coastal research, 75(sp1), 612-616. https://doi.org/10.2112/si75-123.1

There is a need to understand the controls on rocky coastal form in order to predict the likely response to climate changes and sea-level rise. Spatial variations in coastal geometry result from inheritance and contemporary processes, notably erosive... Read More about What controls the geometry of rocky coasts at the local scale?.
