Evaluación del impacto del aumento del nivel del mar y tormentas en las playas arenosas puerto velero y bocatocino del departamento del Atlántico (Colombia).
Storms have always been natural events that severely affect the population and the morphology of beaches. Sea level rise (SLR) is a phenomenon that induces many impacts in any coastal zone, from the loss of marine ecosystems to the retreat of the coastline. Under these concepts, conditions of some e...

Summary: | Storms have always been natural events that severely affect the population and the morphology of beaches. Sea level rise (SLR) is a phenomenon that induces many impacts in any coastal zone, from the loss of marine ecosystems to the retreat of the coastline. Under these concepts, conditions of some events (Hurricane Lenny 1999 and Cold Front 2010) and the SLR in current and future conditions (2025 and 2050) were evaluated in Puerto Velero and Bocatatocino beaches of the Department of Atlantico, with the objective of evaluating the morphodynamic responses to these extreme events, using the XBeach numerical model. Twelve case studies were carried out, 6 for each beach and each extreme event has a modeling with different SLR levels. The numerical model used equations such as wave energy balance and sediment transport for each of the profiles. The results show variations in the morphodynamics of the beaches, being present in all cases the impact of erosion, changes in the hydrodynamics of gravitational and infragravitational waves, among others. The cold front, in comparison to Hurricane Lenny, ended up being the extreme event with the greatest impact on the beaches, due to the duration of its interaction with both beaches; on the other hand, the SLR conditions show variations in hydrodynamic and morphological aspects from the conditions of the year 2025. |
