National Coastal Change Assessment 2: Enhancing the evidence base and our ability to adapt
The CREW-funded National Coastal Change Assessment (NCCA) has revolutionised the evidence base of coastal change. The entire 21,000 km of the Scottish coastline has been categorised and 3,800 km of potentially erodible ‘soft’ coast identified and investigated to quantify historic and recent mobility. Of the soft coast, 23% has experienced significant change.
