Abstract
This paper considers short-term coastal erosion in the Gaza Strip and its relationship to the local sea level change and human interventions on the shoreline. There is a proven relationship between increased coastal erosion and global mean sea level rise, especially in the long-term; however, the impact of human interventions on the shoreline could be more than on sea level in the short-term. Recently, cliff and coastal erosion have been widely noticed along the shoreline, mainly where human interventions occur. Therefore, remote sensing and GIS were used to derive the rate of coastal erosion in these regions while local sea level data were collected from the available Permanent Service for Mean Sea Level (PSMSL) in order to investigate sea level changes. The local sea level trends from adjacent stations to the Gaza Strip were derived. The goal is to investigate whether an upward sea level trend explains the occurring erosion of the shores. The results revealed that several regions along the Gaza Strip shoreline undergo a landward erosional process, with an average rate ranging between – 0.2 and – 0.8 m/year. Furthermore, monthly and annual mean sea level trends demonstrated a negative trend between -1.42 and –5.25 mm/year. In particular, as there is no clue of a significant upward trend in local sea level during the last eight years which is accompanied by an acceleration in the coastal erosion, informal human intervention could be considered a primary catalyst for accelerating coastal erosion in the short-term.
