| 英文摘要 | Climate change is driving higher coastal water levels, and models project accelerated future sea -level rise and coastal storm intensification. These dynamics paired with anthropogenic coastal alterations will drive drastic coastal change worldwide. Composite beaches with mixed sediment sizes warrant detailed study as these exhibit complex morphodynamics in response to changing hydrodynamics due to the distinct transport thresholds of different sediment types. This study uses a novel multi -method approach to investigate a composite sand -cobble beach in Atlantic Canada experiencing a shortening seasonal sand -covered period. Hydrodynamic forcing and associated beach changes were monitored over a focused eight -month period, while satellite -based visual imagery and reconstructed wave data were analyzed over longer periods. Results show that intra-annual wave energy changes drive sand dynamics, with reduced summer wave energy facilitating short-term deposition. Longterm positive trends were identified in late spring wave heights, which likely contribute to the shortening sandcovered period. Seasonal dynamics were overwhelmed by extratropical cyclone Fiona, which made landfall on September 24, 2022, generating significant wave heights up to 6.8 m in the bay, mobilizing sediment, and steepening cobble berms. A new index approach based on visual imagery facilitated the investigation of beach sand appearance/disappearance using the relative redness of sand compared to cobble. Finally, the UAV-based surveys yielded high -resolution orthomosaics and LiDAR-based elevation mapping, and highlighted pronounced longshore variability in erosion and deposition during Fiona. The beach mostly recovered to pre -storm conditions in <4 months, which indicates that proposed beach nourishment activities may only experience temporary success. The longer -term results showing a conversion of sand to cobble suggest that loss of sandy beach habitat is likely to increase, even without shoreline migration or coastal squeeze driven by sea -level rise. |
