Coastal processes and cliff recession between Gabicce and Pesaro (Northern Adriatic Sea): a case history.
No full textCliff recession on the high rocky coast between Gabicce and Pesaro Adriatic sea causes a wide range of mass movement
processes on the whole slope, affecting both the bedrock and the overburden. The outcropping late Miocene rock formations are
represented by marls, marly limestones, dark laminated mudstones and bedded sandstones and marls. Mass movements are
common because of stratification and discontinuities in the rocks that, together with the presence of groundwater and
weathering processes, reduce the overall strength of the slopes. A model for the evolution of this coastal area is proposed, which
involves cyclic basal erosion, followed by mass movement that favours debris accumulation at the base of the cliff. The
longshore currents have to then remove the material before a new cycle can begin

Ecological stages of Maldivian reefs after the coral mass mortality of 1998
No full textThe bleaching event of 1998 caused widespread mortality on coral reefs in the Maldives. Nearly 10 years after the coral mass mortality, the state of Maldivian reefs was evaluated paying specific attention to three ecological stages, linked to the 3D structure of the coral community: young (high living hard coral cover), mature (a balance between living coral cover and loose sediment), and regressive (high amount of rubble and sand). The relative importance of three biogeomorphological descriptors (living hard corals; rubble and sand; coralline algae on rock) in the reef flat (2-7 m depth) and in the slope (7-18 m) of three reefscapes related to wave exposure was assessed. The role of wave energy in shaping ecological stages is different in the reef flat (early stages are found in low energy conditions) and in the slope (early stages are associated with high energy sites
