Congrats CoastSnap Wembury!

First SBP line at Porthtowan with Innomar SES2000 compact...great data, sand depths are 2-4m. Chapelporth next...@NERCscience @BGSMarineGeo @BLUEcoastUK @PlymUni

[Mitchell Harley @DocHarleyMD]

The inaugural #CoastSnap Users meeting held as part of the #CoastalImagingResearchNetwork workshop in Toulouse. What a wonderful day talking community beach monitoring!

[Nick Ely @Nick_Ely]

Hey @DocHarleyMD you are famous in South Devon now too. Great to hear from John Hart of @UniofBath discussing #coastsnap installations here in UK #citizenscience

‘Storm Waves at the Shoreline: When and Where Are Infragravity Waves Important?’ - Our new paper exams infragravity waves at the shoreline of 5 contrasting beaches under storm conditions. Huge thanks to @prussellsurf @mdavidson64 and the @pu_cprg team. https://t.co/T0GDtAN6aW

@DocHarleyMD @OfficialPCO @Nick_Ely let's bring it to the SW!

New @BLUEcoastUK paper out on coastal embayment rotation by PhD @ChiefoBanjo - free download: https://t.co/TAwWb3ntWS. Data obtained with groundbreaking total sediment approach perfected by @pu_cprg. @PlymUniResearch

The road to the properties at Beesands Cellars has totally gone over night and the wall to the football pitch breached. The wooden telegraph poles from the middle Slapton carpark have washed up where the Beesands winching sheds used to be...

[Gerd Masselink @gmasselink]

Slapton Line is broken. Beach Management Plan advises for short-term to reroute section of damaged road to the back of the barrier. Long-term? I expect drop-in session on 7 March will be well attended!

#BeastFromTheEast 26-2-18, Start Bay, Devon, 50km/hr easterlies, 3m waves, minus 5 degrees windchill, snow flurries! Great conditions for @BLUEcoastUK storm survey with @pu_cprg, @OliBillsonCPRG, @ChiefoBanjo, #BLUEcoastUK

[Pete Moore @forestandbeach]

Huge seas #Torcross #SlaptonLine this evening @Devon_Hour @StartBayInn @boathousetorx @emmathomasson @FSCSlaptonLey @GreatDevonDays @coastmag @NewsSouthHams @DevonLiveNews

[Nick Ely @Nick_Ely]

Best of luck to @BLUEcoastUK team working hard to collect #data on #coastal conditions at Start Bay, #Devon in challenging conditions. This research will help us better understand coastal processes in the area & inform future #flood & coastal #erosion @EnvAgencySW @OfficialPCO

[Oliver @OliBillsonCPRG]

26/02,27/02 and 02/03 at Torcross, Devon. Gravel has built up as waves overtopped the barrier resulting in this dramatic change to the landscape in just 4 days. Gravel and debris from the sea got as far as The Ley over this mornings high tide. @BBCSpotlight @BBCDevon @pu_cprg

Our paper in Ecological Engineering on monitoring of the South Efford salt marsh restoration is now out: https://t.co/hWVXQh9k2I … - free!

What a fantastic conference!Met some wonderful people, great to see some good friends and learnt a huge amount thanks #coastaldynamics2017!!

Latest @pu_cprg #BLUEcoast #UAV survey of the South Devon coast completed last week. Over 3300 images, 3 days, and 80km of tracks flown.

[Oliver @OliBillsonCPRG]

Apr's mnthly survey delivering arctic winds and snow showers.. ❄️🌊 apparently that's @ChiefoBanjo under all that PPE @pu_cprg @BLUEcoastUK
