Coastal Geomorphology Course
This course equips you to understand shoreline changes, sediment flows, and storm effects in coastal areas. You will learn to map landforms, model sediment transport, evaluate defence options, and deliver clear reports for practical coastal management in geography and earth sciences, helping tackle real erosion and flood risks.

What will I learn?
Gain hands-on skills in assessing wave patterns, tidal movements, storm effects, and sea-level shifts. Map key coastal features like beaches and dunes using GIS and remote sensing tools. Analyse sediment movement with actual data, develop simple transport models, assess protection strategies, and prepare solid reports for coastal planning and hazard control.
