AN ANALYSIS OF THE COASTAL RISKS IN THE ROMANIAN NEARSHORE
Abstract
The evolution of the Romanian coastal zone is the result of the balance between losses and supplies of sedimentary material. The erosion phenomena are given by the numerous conflicts among the development of various economic activities. In the last years, this balance was negative for large sectors of the Romanian Black Sea shore, as a consequence of the new conditions disturbing the pre-existing natural environment. In this paper, we propose to analyze the coastal risk in the Romanian nature in order to explain the effects of moving shoreline in case of option ”no intervention”. For this, each coastal zone of shoreline was analyzed in order to identify critical points of coastal zone erosion based on hydro morphological process
