Next Eurocoast zoominar is Fri 24/3, 1500-1600 (UK time) by Prof. Edward Anthony from Aix-Marseille Univ., titled ‘River delta geomorphology and humans: a long and uneasy relationship'. If you like to present a ‘hotplot’ or need adding to mailing list, please email me. @UoP_CPRG
I have a new PhD position now available investigating the role of regional sediment connectivity in coastal resilience lnkd.in/gqB6mDRJ Involves extensive inner shelf data collection throughout the Cornish coast using autonomous platforms, lab work and novel data analysis.
We are looking for an outstanding post-doc to complement the #ARISE team, investigating the impact of sea-level rise on atoll islands: hrservices.plymouth.ac.uk/tlive_webrecru…. Position starts 1 October 2023. @UoP_CPRG @UoP_CMAR
Applications now open for up to 3 PhDs investigating response of atoll islands to sea-level rise. plymouth.ac.uk/student-life/y… Closing date for applications is 12 noon on 31 March 2023. Job advert for post-doc will follow soon. @UoP_CMAR @UoP_CPRG @drtimscott

@ Mexico Towans today for some #Sand #transport #dune fieldwork. Interested in #coastal #research ? Then make sure to share your work @UKCRC2023 with @UoP_CPRG and @channelcoast . Abstracts are open!!
A heads-up that in a few months I shall be advertising for 2-3 PhDs and 1 post-doc to work on a project investigating impact of sea-level rise on atoll islands. Anyone seriously interested in these positions, which will start Oct 2023, please contact me via email. @UoP_CPRG
We are hiring! If you want to be part of a dynamic team doing coastal consultancy @PlymUni with @UoP_CPRG check out this advert: eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…
Next Eurocoast zoominar is 28/10, 1500-1600 (UK time) by Prof. Nicoletta Leonardi from the U. of Liverpool, titled ‘Investigating Coastal Dynamics through Modelling and Deep Learning’. If anyone would like to present a ‘hotplot’, please let me know. @UoP_CPRG
After a two year wait we are finally in #Capetown for @MetOffice_Sci #NewtonFund #RipCurrent experiment with @NSRI @SAWeatherServic @LifesavingSouth @CityofCT. What a coastline!
It is always a privilege and a pleasure to work with @BrunoCastelle, and I am pleased as punch to see our review published: Morphodynamics of wave-dominated beaches bit.ly/3CeqTsk
15-min video showing the complexity of beach morphology and resulting rip current flow dynamics (see drifting foams) we monitor - believe it or note, 0.5-m tide difference can shift rip direction by ~90° within ~30 min #SWYM Project @DehezJeoffrey @ZelgadisSorcier @OASUnivers
To clarify my earlier twt reg. Doctoral Training Assistants, the posts are only available to UK residents (Brexit means Brexit!). However, in 6 mths I will be advertising for 1-2 additional PhDs, as well as a 3-5 year post-doc on a similar topic. Happy to talk to you about these.
My School invites applications for 3 Doctoral Teaching Assistantship positions. These are 5-year posts that combine doing a PhD with providing teaching assistance. We are advertising for 6 projects and one of these is working with me on atoll islands. hrservices.plymouth.ac.uk/tlive_webrecru….
CPRG in partnership with the National Network of Regional Coastal Monitoring Programmes are pleased to announce the first UK Coastal Research Conference to be held in July 2023 in Plymouth. For more information: plymouth.ac.uk/whats-on/unite…
We are recruiting and looking for a Lecturer in Marine Sciences (Big Data)! See hrservices.plymouth.ac.uk/tlive_webrecru… for advert. Who would not want to work in Plymouth?
Next #Eurocoast Zoominar is Fri 22/07 at 3 PM (UK time) and is by Professor Aart Kroon who will be presenting his work on: Coastal evolution of Arctic deltas in Greenland. If you are not on the mailing list, please contact [email protected] to get the zoom link.
A hi-tech sensor called a ‘B-Scan Sensor Unit’ has been installed on Hayling Island beach this week by @UoP_CMAR The sensor will help us to understand how the beach responds to storms & surge events. The B-Scan system purely monitors beach material.

Celebrating Kilian Vos' (@_kvos) PhD with an overview presentation "Satellite remote sensing to study sandy beaches". An amazing body of work that was a pleasure to be a supervisor of (along with @KDSplinter and Ian Turner)
@gmasselink Thanks Gerd, it was once again a real pleasure for me too ! 😃
A short video showing some highlights of our annual meeting in Singapore, with a big thank you to our hosts @EOS_SG Featuring @QuakesAndShakes @SeaLevelNTU @SeaLevelHK @flimsin @CoastalLabNTU and many others... youtu.be/9rZ9sXEVJww
Great to hear about @gmasselink ‘s research into the impact of storms on coastal sediment in the south west in today’s P6 session. We were delighted that some yr 11 students joined our A level geographers. @PlymUni @TKASA6th
A colleague from @ObsCoteAqui just sent me some photos, I thought piece of them were worth sharing. If you like wild rips and empty surf breaks, here is what some of the remote beaches in southwest France can look like - for the scale, average rip spacing is ~400 m in this area
Watching the wave buoys from my desk is the closest I can get to storm chasing these days as all my kit is sat in the Arctic Circle. The @marineinstitute M3 buoy @WavenetUK showing 10.7m at the mo, lets hope the buoys fair better than they did in the 2013/14 storms! #StormEunice
These pictures are of Downderry beach. Same day, sameish spot...can you spot the difference? #StormEunice #DownderryBeach
very thankful to my amazing supervisory team @KDSplinter, @DocHarleyMD, Ian Turner, and the many colleagues that made this journey so special (@KhojastehDanial, @IbacetaRaimundo and many more!) also cheers to all the #CoastSat users for keeping things engaging on @github

Atoll islands can accrete vertically - only if they are given the opportunity to do so. In #Maldives its #businessasusual not to let islands "accrete", but kill coastlines with concrete! The destruction has been staggering. What hope? nature.com/articles/s4159… @PlymUni @gmasselink
Public lecture by Dr.Gerd Masselink (Professor in Coastal Geomorphology at the University of Plymouth) on ‘Atoll islands can accrete vertically in response to sea level rise’ was held today (12 January 2022) at The Maldives National University, Central Auditorium.
Happening now. Professor @gmasselink of @PlymUni giving a public lecture on how Atoll Islands can accrete vertically in response to sea level rise, at MNU.
This is a really important research paper - demonstrates that just 15% of coastal LPAs have designated Coastal Change Management Areas, an urgent need for clearer and stricter NPPF policy and better modelling of coastal change. @RTPIPlanners @theTCPA @michaelgove
New paper by Josie Kirby reviews use of Coastal Change Management Areas for coastal adaption to climate change: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S09…. Conclusion: they very much under-used; not helped by inconsistent approaches to predicting future shorelines @UoP_CPRG @UoP_CMAR @MarineSciPlym
Very happy to have passed my PhD viva in #coastalengineering at @PlymUniPGR, subject to minor corrections. I am incredibly lucky to have worked alongside such an excellent supervison team and the exciting @COAST_UoP lab.
An extra special #Narrabeen survey today joined by Andy Short, who started the surveys 45 years ago with measuring tape and Emery pole. Ready to take over again?
Excellent review of #SLR impacts on #coast by @gmasselink and Dr Alison Raby @PlymUni "gone are the days where we see adapting to #sealevelrise and #storm impacts as a problem for only engineers to address, and where we pitch engineering against coastal #ecology".
Sea-level rise is inevitable. We need to adapt to avoid the greatest harm: plymouth.ac.uk/news/pr-opinio…
"#Adaptations can also mean focusing on ‘green’ or #NatureBasedSolutions, like reinstating #saltmarshes and #mangroves (me: #dunes). Not only are these interventions incredibly effective and add #biodiversity, they often provide additional benefits including #carbon capture..."
