High-Resolution Coastal Vulnerability Assessment for the Istrian Peninsula: Developing a Physical Coastal Vulnerability Index (PCVI)

Geosciences, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 15(3), С. 85 - 85

Опубликована: Март 1, 2025

Increasing risks from sea-level rise and other climate impacts call for a focus on physical coastal attributes, emphasising the need region-specific tools to address vulnerability of different coastlines. This paper presents development Physical Coastal Vulnerability Index (PCVI) change like rise, erosion, storm surges, which is applied Croatian coast Istrian Peninsula. The methodology provides detailed, site-specific assessment focusing parameters such as aspect, slope, elevation, type. Eight grid cell sizes were evaluated map coastline, demonstrating, expected, that smaller cells (5 × 5 m) captured more detailed variability in vulnerability. Among seven calculation methods, second root self-weighted arithmetic mean (M3) proved most effective, high-risk regions by prioritising critical variables. results show western vulnerable due its morphological properties, with nearly 50% highly emphasises importance using high-resolution grids avoid oversimplification recommends PCVI basis further socio-economic assessments. proposed offers framework can be adapted assess eastern Adriatic similar regions, particularly Mediterranean, enhancing relevance integrated zone management global mitigation strategies.

Climate Resilience of Coastal Cities Using Geographic Information Systems (GIS)

E3S Web of Conferences, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 581, С. 01014 - 01014

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2024

Coastal cities worldwide face increasing threats from climate change, including rising sea levels, extreme weather events, and flooding. Enhancing the resilience of these is critical to mitigating impacts on infrastructure, ecosystems, human populations. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) offer powerful tools for analyzing vulnerabilities guiding adaptation strategies. This paper investigates coastal using GIS techniques assess risks, map vulnerable areas, propose measures. By combining spatial analysis data, we evaluate three cities—Miami, Mumbai, Manila. The results show significant variations in vulnerability due differences geography, urban density, socio-economic factors. We provide actionable recommendations improving resilience, zoning reforms, flood-resistant community-based adaptive practices.
