    Pan-European map visualization, at a range of scales, indicating lower, intermediate, and higher levels of coastline resilience and vulnerability. The resilience of a system is defined as its ability to withstand and recover from a major disruption, whereas vulnerability is a measure of the susceptibility of a system to change. Higher resilience reduces susceptibility and thus vulnerability to change. Higher levels of resilience/lower levels of vulnerability are shown in light blue, intermediate levels in mid-blue and lower levels of resilience/higher levels of vulnerability in dark blue. The dataset is constructed by Edge Hill University with data provided by partners of EMODnet Geology. For the purpose of visualization, the dataset is built from the coastline as a line representation at the highest zoom levels, towards points showing averages of the resilience/vulnerability of the coastline underneath. This approach gives a good overview of regional differences in resilience/vulnerability. The current version was finalized in July 2024. Full paper link: https://doi.org/10.1144/qjegh2024-119

    This map was produced using data from the South-west Regional Coastal Monitoring Programme, commissioned by Teignbridge District Council, in this case covering the coastline between Lands End to Hartland Point. Through conducting a range of surveys including aerial, bathymetric, wave and tidal surveys, and ecological mapping, the programme aims to promote and implement a repeatable, standard, and cost-effective method of monitoring the coastal environment. This map is the result of the ecological mapping component of the programme, and the habitat data is presented as vector polygons using the EUNIS 2007-11 habitat classification scheme. The mapping project aimed to map the extent of all coastal and terrestrial Priority Habitats within the EMSW03 work package area, covering 6,644 hectares from Lands End, Cornwall to Hartland Point, Devon.
