What are the primary factors of erosions around the north of Kalpitiya?

  • Decreasing sediment supply from the south?
  • Local unbalance of the longshore sediment transport rate?
  • Temporal shoreline retreat due to stormy waves?

We need more frequent monitoring

  • f the shoreline change

2007.1 2009.12 PALSAR Good Relatively high resolution Shoreline is clearly detected Monitoring frequency Not so good

  • coarser resolution
  • Relatively low intensity of signal

from the lower land like sand spit

Comparisons of GPS-log and PALSAR image

  • GPS-log data recorded

in July 2010 (red lines) were compared with the PALSAR image.

  • Sandy beach sometime

is “darker” than the swash zone.

  • PALSAR image can be

a useful data sets to monitor shoreline changes.

  • severe erosion around

X~20km whereas significant accumulation at X~15km

  • Relatively stable shoreline

at X<14km

  • Rapid shoreline change in

each beginning of the year?

Estimated Bathymetry

sand accumulation?

  • Wide shallower area is developed on the north side of Kalpitiya.
  • These accumulated sand can be a source of longshore sediment supply to the north
  • Further monitoring is essential for future estimation of the sediment budget

Temporal variation of natural grain TL signal

Nearshore Sediment Movement

Thermoluminescence

Sand grain emits light (luminescence) when exposed to light (OSL: Optically Stimulated Luminescence) or heat (TL: Thermo Luminescence). Intensity of the luminescence depends on how long the grain was buried under the ground and how long it has been exposed to the sunlight.

Clear peak around Kalu river > sand supply from the land Gradual decay toward north > Northward transport No major peak in the north of Nigombo > No major sand supply from land

Results and Findings

Small peak at the Kelani River mouth > relatively small sand supply from land

  • Cross-shore beach profile stays the same.
  • Sand moves only where the water depth is

shallower than the critical depth, Ds.

Model representation of the S.L.-change from 1956 to 2000

  • Coral reef around Kalpitiya caused local accumulation / erosion
  • While the shoreline is stable owing to coastal structures in the south of

Chilaw, predicted water depth in front of the shoreline is kept increasing.
