Spatiotemporal evaluation of the geomorphological state of beach‐dune systems using management criteria

Abstract: This article analyses the spatiotemporal evolution (spanning 1956 to 2016) of two large bays located on the Costa Brava coast: the Gulf of Roses and Bay of Pals (NW Mediterranean, Spain). This research demonstrates how the status of dunes is related to management measures. For this purpose, a matrix of 11 variables was used to assess the management procedures and geo-environmental conservation status of each sector. The 12 beach-dune systems assessed have been classified into four stages according to their deg… Show more

“…Dichos espacios son los únicos espacios del litoral catalán que presentan trenes de barjanes de estas dimensiones (Garcia-Lozano, 2019). En menor medida, la Pletera, situada en la bahía de Pals, también presenta dichas morfologías (Roig-Munar et al, 2017), mientras que las playas del delta del Ebro presenta campos de dunas barjanoides, aunque a menudo estos no están dispuestos paralelos a la costa (Garcia-Lozano, 2019).…”

“…En la última década se han iniciado algunas actuaciones incipientes, y sin continuidad de mejora, de los sistemas de foredunes y playa alta, que han pasado de un estadio 5 según Hesp (2002) a un estadio 3 (Roig-Munar et al, 2018;Roig-Munar et al, 2020). Las gestiones han consistido en la regulación de los usos de playa y la instalación de captadores de interferencia sedimentaria, sin tareas de mantenimiento y continuidad, hecho que ha hipotecado los resultados positivos esperados (Roig-Munar et al, 2017).…”

“…Recently this method was used again by other authors in arid and Mediterranean areas to assess both vulnerability and resilience of beach-dune systems (Peña-Alonso et al, 2017;Ciccarelli et al, 2017). Following the same methodology based on checklists, other authors have analyzed the management actions of the beach-dune environments and the degradation of dunes to relate human pressure to the status of dunes conservation (Roig-Munar et al, 2006;Pintó et al, 2014a;Garcia-Lozano et al, 2020;Roig-Munar et al, 2020).…”

“…Consequently, the foredune degradation has led to boost dune restoration projects along these sedimentary coasts. In the case of the Costa Brava, Roig-Munar et al (2020) pointed out the relation between the current state of dunes and the management measures in the bays of Costa Brava. Management measures were related to good conserved and/or recovered dunes, and vice versa.…”
