Project Abstract

Abstract
Climate change has become a prominent global issue that is affecting various aspects of the environment, including coastal erosion. Coastal erosion is a natural process that is significantly influenced by changing climate patterns, leading to adverse impacts on coastal communities and ecosystems. Remote sensing techniques have emerged as valuable tools for monitoring and assessing coastal erosion dynamics in a cost-effective and efficient manner. This research project aims to investigate the impacts of climate change on coastal erosion using remote sensing techniques. The study will begin with an introduction that provides an overview of the research topic, followed by a background of the study that discusses the importance of understanding coastal erosion and its relationship to climate change. The problem statement will highlight the challenges posed by climate change-induced coastal erosion, while the objectives of the study will outline the specific goals and research questions to be addressed. The limitations and scope of the study will be clearly defined to set boundaries and expectations for the research. A comprehensive literature review will be conducted in Chapter Two to explore existing theories, concepts, and research findings related to climate change impacts on coastal erosion and the use of remote sensing techniques in monitoring coastal processes. This chapter will provide a critical analysis of relevant studies to identify gaps in the literature and establish a theoretical framework for the research. Chapter Three will focus on the research methodology, detailing the research design, data collection methods, and analytical techniques to be employed in the study. The chapter will outline the process of data acquisition, processing, and analysis using remote sensing tools and geographic information systems (GIS) to assess coastal erosion dynamics in response to climate change. Chapter Four will present the findings of the research, including spatial and temporal trends in coastal erosion rates, changes in coastline morphology, and the relationship between climate variables and erosion patterns. The discussion will interpret the results in the context of climate change impacts and highlight the significance of remote sensing techniques in monitoring coastal processes. Finally, Chapter Five will provide a conclusion and summary of the research project, summarizing the key findings, implications, and recommendations for future research and coastal management practices. The study will contribute to the understanding of climate change impacts on coastal erosion and demonstrate the utility of remote sensing techniques in studying dynamic coastal environments. In conclusion, this research project will advance knowledge in the field of geo-science by investigating the impacts of climate change on coastal erosion using remote sensing techniques. By integrating scientific research with practical applications, the study aims to contribute to sustainable coastal management strategies and enhance resilience to climate change impacts in coastal regions.
