Overview

Bimonthly monitoring reveals significant shoreline retreat in Uruçuca, Ilhéus, and Una, implying urgent coastal management actions.

Key Points

  • The research aims to assess coastal erosion on the Cocoa Coast through bimonthly shoreline monitoring.
  • Conducted bimonthly shoreline monitoring from 2018 to 2024.
  • Utilized PlanetScope satellite imagery for analysis.
  • Employed Digital Shoreline Analysis System to vectorize mean high tide lines.
  • Calculated shoreline displacement using Net Shoreline Movement statistics.
  • Identified a general erosive trend along the shoreline.
  • Recorded peak retreat of 14.18 m in July–August 2020 and 9.80 m in May-June 2020.
  • Highlighted the impact of high hydrodynamic energy periods on erosion rates.
