Description
The objective of the FAST project is to develop a Copernicus downstream service based on (Sentinel) satellite data and in situ data to assess the function of wetlands in reducing flood risk and erosion. This requires an assessment of the erodibility and stability of foreshores, as well as knowledge on how saltmarshes function and develop, in order to predict their future status, and hence their flood defence value over longer time-scales. While detailed results on sediment and marsh dynamics are presented in particularly Deliverable 5.2, this Deliverable 3.6 serves to lists publication output of the project related to the study of vertical and lateral sediment dynamics of foreshores and marsh range changes and their drivers. The potential for implementation of products and services related to sediment dynamics and stability in the Copernicus downstream service is discussed.
