The project aims to support more sustainable coastal management by increasing resilience and reducing the vulnerability of coasts to climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BGS will use a new community modelling system, &#8216;Coastal modelling environment (CoastalME)&#8217;, alongside terrestrial, marine and groundwater models, to characterise how a combination of processes along gravel barrier coasts control coastal flooding and erosion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CoastalME will produce numerical simulations to support multi-hazard analyses under present and future climate change scenarios. These will project, over a range of timescales: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>how multi-hazards will respond to predicted climate change processes and impacts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>how humans are affecting future hazards <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>how we will be affected under different coastal management scenarios; for example, how do gravel barriers respond to individual events, such as storms, in the context of longer-term, \u2018progressive\u2019 trends, such as sea-level rise?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The results will support improved coastal management decision making based on the improved understanding of how gravel barriers evolve over longer time scales under different climate condition and human intervention scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The findings will be combined with an assessment of the role of coastal habitats, resulting in national maps of vulnerabilities of coastal habitats to climate-driven multi-hazards for protective services. BGS will also provide tools to analyse the efficacy of future coastal management schemes.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t<blockquote id=\"quote-688-block_a87f3b63d6a0d370828c192cb7144b4b\" class=\"quote  \" >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"quote-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/themes\/bgs\/img\/quote-caption.svg\" alt=\"Speech marks icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"quote-text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The GBCoasts project will enable us to better address the transformational challenges that many communities along the UK\u2019s coastlines are facing today and in the near future, regarding ever-increasing risks of coastal flooding and coastal erosion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andres Payo Garcia, BGS Coastal Geomorphologist.<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\n\n\n<p>In order to achieve the objectives of GBCoasts, there will be a collaboration between the different sectors of UK academics, engineering consultants and research institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n<div  class=\"accordions\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"acc-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<button class=\"acc-top secondary-background icon-arrow button no-btn\"><span class=\"button-content\" tabindex=\"-1\">About NERC<\/span><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"acc-body sea-background-e\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) is the driving force of investment in environmental science in the UK.
