2024年12月5日 · As rising temperatures, shifting weather patterns, and intensifying storms continue to reshape the coastline, scientists warn of critical, interconnected effects on the state’s economy and environment. The California coast faces challenges on multiple fronts.

2025年2月10日 · Using California as a case study, a NASA-led team has shown how seemingly modest vertical land motion could significantly impact local sea levels in coming decades. By 2050, sea levels in California are expected to increase between 6 and 14.5 inches (15 and 37 centimeters) higher than year 2000 levels.

2025年1月30日 · Wave conditions along the California coast are represented by two distinct regions: (a) northern and central California, which have larger and more seasonally varying waves, and (b) southern California, which has smaller waves with strong seasonality patterns in wave direction (Table 1; Figures 14a–14f).

2023年6月8日 · California's stunning coastline, famous for its pristine beaches and breathtaking vistas, faces an uncertain future as new research estimates that between 24 to 75 percent of California's beaches could become completely eroded …

Sea-level rise, coastal flooding, and erosion. Sea-level rise is already accelerating along the California coast and will continue to rise substantially over the 21st century, threatening coastal communities, natural resources, cultural sites, and infrastructure.

2023年8月22日 · Using nearly four decades of satellite images, models of predicted sea level rise and global wave patterns, the researchers estimate 24 to 75% of California's beaches "may become completely...

2021年3月22日 · There are two main types of mechanical weathering which occur at the coast. Freeze-thaw weathering occurs when the daytime temperature is different than the night-time temperature either side of freezing point on rock faces. During the day, water enters cracks in the rock and at night when the temperature drops the water expands as it freezes.
