An indicative index of physical susceptibility of small islands to coastal erosion induced by climate change: an application to the Pacific islands
An objective method is proposed to evaluate the susceptibility of islands to climate change. As used here, susceptibility is an estimate of the potential for physical change of an island coast in response to likely changes in climate–ocean boundary conditions. The evaluation is based on an assumptio...
