  12. Seawall ruling may set erosion precedent for NSW beaches
    By Sarah Forster

    Beachside residents at The Entrance North can start building their own seawall after a court ruling that may set a precedent for the entire NSW coastline.

  14. Assessment of Shoreline Change in Southeast Ireland Using Geospatial Techniques

    doi.org/10.3390/su18073280 <-- shared paper
    --
    "... KEY INSIGHTS:
    • Coastlines are highly dynamic — 57% accretion vs 42% erosion
    • Strong contrasts between east-facing (Irish Sea) and south-facing (Atlantic) coasts
    • Identification of critical erosion hotspots (e.g., Tramore) and accretion zones in embayments
    • Coastal change is driven by a combination of wave climate, sediment availability, geology, and human activity

  15. #ClimateChange May Unearth #ColdWar-Era #NuclearWaste Stored by the U.S. in Other Countries

    A new report finds that melting ice and #RisingSeaLevels could disturb #RadioactiveContamination left over from American #NuclearTests after World War II

    by Tara Wu, March 6, 2024

    Excerpt: "Rising global temperatures could unearth Cold War-era nuclear waste created by the United States and stored in other countries, posing potential issues for the environment and local inhabitants, according to a new report.

    "An assessment conducted by the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) released earlier this year examined nuclear waste in the #MarshallIslands, #Greenland and #Spain, three locations with radioactive contamination resulting from American nuclear activity in the decades following World War II. Climate change could cause this nuclear waste to enter the environment, as warming temperatures melt ice sheets that contain radioactive liquid and raise sea levels that could pollute food and water sources with toxic waste, per the study.

    "This lingering contamination came from nuclear weapon detonations, including hydrogen bombs, and accidents at numerous sites around the world. Often, the U.S. government stored this waste near the sites of detonation, Robert Hayes, a nuclear engineer at North Carolina State University, says to Julia Jacobo of ABC News. In Greenland, officials disposed of nuclear waste in the ice sheet, and in the Marshall Islands, they placed it in a container with a concrete cap."

    Difficult decisions are going to have to made and there needs to be more of a national conversation I agree.

    At the moment we’re framing it around holiday homes, caravans and in this recent case in #Happisburgh - graves of the dead:

    These things are nice to preserve, but not vital. The risk will soon be to whole communities.
