Coastal Processes and Shoreline Management – Initiatives of ICMAM/MoES Scientist-F & Head (Coastal Processes & Shoreline Management Group)

Coastal Process studies and Shoreline management (Since 2003 onwards...) 1. The coastal areas have been experiencing a number of changes:  accelerated changes in shoreline: loss of beaches and closures of inlets,  degradation /changes of coastal habitats and land use- land cover  increased coastal erosion & flooding due to extreme events and sea level rise  changes in sediment transport pattern and islands, including coral islands  Pressures of developmental activities along the shoreline (ports, harbours etc) 2. Careful understanding and estimations of coastal processes i.e. Tide, Current, Wave Tsunami, Storm Surges, Sediment transport, Shoreline evolution, etc, is very important Tsunami, Storm Surges, Sediment transport, Shoreline evolution, etc, is very important to deal with various long-term variations in the coastal zone. 3. ICMAM has invested its energy in deal with these processes in small way at local scale through scientific experiments using monitoring, measurements, modelling, Mapping and Management (5 M approach) 4. Management solutions provided by ICMAM are partially implemented at few locations 5. Currently ICMAM focus is to i) assess the sediment transport rates at selected locations and ii) Long term and annual shoreline changes along Indian coast

Implementation of partial SMP for coastal Implementation of partial SMP for coastal protection at protection at Panathura Panathura Close grid nearshore bathymetry & Wave, current and sediment Numerical modeling for Shoreline Evolution based upon historic data Design of ‘T-groin field’, Implementation by Irrigation Dept. (Kerala Govt) Predicted shoreline evolution Predicted shoreline evolution over 25 years over 25 years Performance now being monitored Model studies predicted beach formation north of groin But beach formed south of groin Monsoon erosion is mostly storm profile erosion – the data was not there and included in the model Beach developed Beach developed after groin after groin construction construction

Shoreline Management (2003-2012): lessons learned  Plans are conceptual solutions & subjective  Lack of information / Generation of quality data  Understanding the nature, causes Coastal Erosion for coastal protection– holistic approach therefore The project was reviewed by high level committee in 2012 and recommended to focus on Coastal Processes studies and Shoreline vulnerability assessment ( 2013 onwards…) Ongoing activities:  Shoreline change mapping - a coastal service on shoreline changes  Coastal Processes & Transport modelling- Understanding of the system & to provide technical support to coastal states and other user agencies  Coastal Change System- extent of coastal changes, classification & vulnerability assessment

Approach for Shoreline Monitoring for Indian Coast: Remote Sensing + Field Monitoring Monthly shoreline & Foreshore slope survey for Erosion & Shoreline changes are site specific and Positional Uncertainty Human interventions and Distinct Morphology positional uncertainty for a geomorphic systems depend on human interventions. shoreline changes Shoreline processes depend on I.

Protocols adopted for Geometric Correction to Shoreline studies:  2 nd Order polynomial is preferable (requires minimum of 6 GCPs).- used 10-12 GCPs – collected from field (90%)  GCP’s spread evenly over the image, covering the whole image, and GCP were also placed in overlapping region to avoid edge mismatch between the two or more images.  RMSE maintained within pixel. 6-8 Check used for verifying rectification (Check point error ~ less than a pixel).  About ~35-38% of shoreline is experiencing erosion based upon 1990-2015  Accretion is leading to closure of creek /inlet mouths  Existing ~200 harbours & ports, Sea level rise also has impact on coast
