Project Abstract

Abstract
Climate change is a pressing global issue that has been linked to various environmental impacts, including coastal erosion. Understanding the relationship between climate change and coastal erosion rates is crucial for effective coastal management and adaptation strategies. This research project investigates the impact of climate change on coastal erosion rates in a specific region, with a focus on analyzing the underlying factors and mechanisms driving these changes.
