Coastal Sediment Systems

The Coastal Sediment Systems Research Programme is a four-year programme, set up as a collaboration with the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), the Environment Agency (EA) and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA).

The objective of this programme is to improve our capability to predict long-term and regional scale change on the coasts and in our estuaries.

This programme will address the Coastal Flooding and Coastal Erosion Challenge in the NERC Natural Hazards Strategy theme report, and will also directly contribute to future revisions of the Environment Agency's Long-Term Investment Strategy and UK Government's strategic goals with respect to adaptation to, and mitigation of, climate change. It is also anticipated that this programme will make a significant contribution to the Living With Environmental Change programme. More about the Coastal Sediment Systems research programme
