..., and investigates excessive land loss and likely future coastal response. Using 10.5 km of soft cliffs in Christchurch Bay, UK as a study region, a historical shoreline analysis from the mid 19th century to the present day was undertaken. Detailed analysis was conducted at three case study sites to determine...

..., (Poole/Christchurch Bays in the central south coast of England), is described. The computational technique is very powerful and an area of 2500 km 2 of sea bed has been reproduced with the refraction behaviour superimposed for various wave directions and periods in deep water. In assessing the results...

Sketches showing the evolution of the D Zone shear surface. The dark chocolate brown seam is shown as a dashed–dotted line in all sketches; (b) is a dip section but all the others are strike sections. (a) Deposition with temporary tranquil conditions allowing clay-rich material to settle out. (b) Folding of the strata: some flexure slip may occur but is distributed across the whole thickness of the Palaeogene strata. (c) Uplift and erosion of the overlying upper Palaeogene strata, resulting in overconsolidation of the remaining beds. (d) Further uplift and erosion during the formation of the Solent River valley, resulting in some lateral unloading, but probably small in the vicinity of the current cliff line. (e) Coastal recession during the formation of Christchurch Bay. Lateral unloading allows rebound with differential slip along the D Zone dark seam, producing a shear surface in the residual state. (f) Marine erosion oversteepens the cliff causing compound slides preferentially utilizing the D Zone shear surface, which is already in a residual strength condition.
