Temas: Aeolian ramps - Anthropogenic alterations - Cliffs - Coastal morphodynamic - Dunes - Shores - cliff - coastal morphology - dune formation - eolian process
Descripción: The purpose of the paper is to analyze the geomorphology and hydrodynamic of the coastal area, to model the evolution of the coastal cohesive cliffs and the handing dune barrier system along southern Buenos Aires coast. The morphology and evolution of coastal transverse profile are used as geoindicator of erosional susceptibility for planning and manage the coastal communities' development. The vulnerability to erosion increases from dune coasts, to stabilized dunes, cliffs covered with ramps, cliffs with ramps, cliffs with mixed ramps, inactive cliffs and active cliffs. Human intervention such as afforestation, urbanization, mining and interruption of the littoral drift by Quequen harbor groins, have altered the eolian and marine sand supply in the area, modifying the coastal profile configuration, trending to the disappearance of sand ramps.

Temas: Argentina - Spits - Waves source - coastal erosion - coastal landform - coastal morphology - provenance - spit - wave propagation - Argentina
Descripción: Three of the biggest barrier spits of Argentina are studied in order to determine the relationship between the coastal planform and littoral dynamics. The studied landforms are the spit of Cabo San Antonio of an age of the 5800 years BP, the north spit of Caleta Valdés with a maximum age of approximately 5700 years BP and El Páramo spit of San Sebastián bay with an inferred age of approximately 6000 years BP. The orientation regarding the coastal planform of the three spits, allows to establish the relationship between landforms and coastal dynamics, being obtained the predominant waves that gave origin to them. Also the possible consequences for the modification or erosion of these landforms, that they would take to the disappearance of coastal environments of significant ecological value and the submergence of some adjacent areas; just as it would happen in Caleta Valdés.

Descripción: According to the global predictions by the International Panel of Climate Change (IPCC), the sea-level rise due to ocean thermal expansion and glacier mass loss will average 0.09 - 0.88 m between 1990 and 2100, with a trend toward an increasing rise rate. Potential impacts of this increasing rise rate relate to changes in the coastal area, including floods, increased coastal retreat, and saline intrusion in the coastal acquiferous and estuaries. In order to achieve an appropriate coastal management scheme in the Province of Río Negro, the area was divided into zones to show information of the level of hazard on a simple map. To identify areas of geological hazard related to permanent and/ or episodic floods, a database was prepared. The threatened or in-danger areas were identified by means of coastal vulnerability indices, also called susceptibility indices, which were calculated by means of an algorithm that relates different variables obtained from coastal geology, and oceanographic and climatological information. This index is defined by seven variables and can be used to identify areas in risk of erosion or permanent/temporary flood. The most vulnerable areas to sea level rise are Balneario El Salado (Playas Doradas), San Antonio Oeste - San Antonio Este, Caleta de los Loros, and the Río Negro mouth. By contrast, vulnerability of the coastal area located to the south of Punta Pórfido is low. © 2004 Asociación Geológica Argentina.

Temas: Anthropic activity - Beaches - Erosion - Protection - Quequén port - beach erosion - cliff - coastal engineering - coastal protection - estuarine dynamics
Descripción: The coast of Lobería and Necochea is characterized by cliffsand narrow beaches. The inlet of the Quequén Grande river used to alter the coastline. The construction of jetties related to the Quequén Harbour induced huge accumulations of sand towards Necochea, and a critic erosive process of cliff and beach to the east. Beach width reduces from 300 m at the west to 40-60 m to the east. Considering regional sand scarcity, the eastern beaches are characterized by more sand variability. Greater variations in the sand balance were assigned to human activity. Waves coming from the E, SE and S deliver more energy along this eastern sector. On the other hand, submerged zones of these beaches have less availability of sand. Greater availability of fine sand was recognized towards Necochea. The Quequén Grande river has much effect on the estuarine dynamics during ENSO-triggered floods, although sedimentation is dominated by silt supply.
