The role of rocky coasts as depositional environments has been generally neglected by rock-
and depositional-coast workers. Although rock coasts can be hostile sedimentary …

The world's coastlines represent a myriad of dynamic and constantly changing
environments. Heavily settled and intensely used areas, they are of enormous importance to …

The degree of boulder mobility in response to coastal storms likely varies spatially and
temporally along rocky shorelines, but this is difficult to evaluate from field monitoring of …

This paper is the first review of coastal boulder studies; it serves as a peer-reviewed
introduction to a special issue on the topic of 'Boulders as a signature of storms on rock …

Rock shore platforms, present on at least half of the 20 500 km-long coastline of the British
Isles, are usually backed by cliffs of varying heights. They form in a range of material types …

Low altitude flights by a micro‐drone were made in 2012 and 2013 over two boulder
beaches in north‐western Spain. Geographical information system software was used to …

Understanding the distribution of wave energy on shore platforms is important for models of
the long term development of both shore platforms and backing cliffs. Little is known …

We investigate some of the geological controls on boulder size, using a heterogeneous
outcrop of Blue Lias limestone. Discontinuity and predicted boulder size data were collected …

The rock coast of northwest Ireland comprises steep cliffed headlands and more open
coastal sections where bedrock shore platforms are developed. Many shore platforms are …

Large boulder accumulations have been observed on various coasts bordering the
Mediterranean and have been associated with extreme wave events such as powerful …
