FutureCoast Erosion Polygons (2050) for High Emissions Scenario SLR
Anticipated erosional areas, between the current 2020 and anticipated 2050 Mean High Water Spring tide lines, based on a High Emissions Scenario sea level rise projection (RCP8.5, 95 percentile) and 'do nothing' coastal management approach. Shoreline retreat is limited by underlying physical susceptibility model (the UPSM of Fitton et al., 2017) and up to 25m of erosion is premitted at known artificial coastal defences. Dataset includes Erosion Area (areas seawards of the 2050 projected position of Mean High Water Springs), Erosion Influence (a 10m landward buffer of the projected position of 2050 MHWS) and Erosion Vicinity (a further 50m landward buffer on Erosion Influence). This data contains the intersect values for society's assets (lengths of roads (km), areas of designates sites (ha)). Further explanation available within Technical Summary WS2, via www.DynamicCoast.com/reports. Please note, there are two versions of this data, one 'Full' version, for Public Sector organisations in support of statutory work. This dataset includes the number of residential and non-residential properties affected within each erosion polygon, alongside other asset types. The 'public' version exlcudes these two fields.

asNeeded
Area between current MHWS and FutureCoast High Emissions Scenario shorelines at 2050 and 2100 were filled to create polygons of Erosion Area, with additional landward buffers created (along the same cross-shore transect trajectories used in the FutureCoast calculations) representing Erosion Influence (10m) and Erosion Vicinity (a further 50m).
