Coasts: The Dynamic Edge
In this episode of The SAGES Climate Science Podcast, we explore Scotland's coastlines, diving into the concept of the "dynamic edge" and how these environments are rapidly changing. Our guests include Prof Sue Dawson, an expert in coastal hazards from the University of Dundee, Prof Larissa Naylor, a coastal geomorphologist from the University of Glasgow, and Freya Muir, a PhD student also from the University of Glasgow, who’s pioneering real-time coastal change monitoring.
We’ll discuss the varied environments along Scotland’s coasts, how they’re evolving in response to climate change, and what this means for the future. What’s the difference between a static coastline and a "dynamic edge"? How do storms, sea level rise, and erosion shape our coasts, and how are communities being impacted by these changes? We’ll also touch on how we’re monitoring these transformations, the traditional methods of managing coastal change, and innovative nature-based solutions that are helping us live with these shifts.
From Montrose to Orkney, we’ll explore key areas experiencing significant change and what the future holds for Scotland’s coastal landscapes. Join us for this insightful conversation about our dynamic coasts and the tools we’re developing to build resilience in a changing world.
