ContextBuenos Aires’ 400 km long coastline is dominated by sandy beaches, dunes and sandbanks. Sandy sediments are distributed along the coast thanks to long-shore drift currents transporting the sediments from the Colorado and Negro rivers. A growth in population and increased tourism has led to construction of new developments and resorts, transport infrastructure and development of port infrastructure. Due to the environmental fragility of the environment, the extension of the urban area has caused destruction of dunes as well as notable changes to the coastal sediment transport system. In addition, coastal erosion is being further exasperated by the effects of climate change which play a role in increasing sea levels and the frequency and intensity of waves. Technology requestThe Provincial Directorate of Hydraulic Engineering (DPOH) at the Ministry of Infrastructure and Public Services of the Province of Buenos Aires, requested support in accessing up-to-date technology and update on tools previously acquired for coastal morphology study and climate change monitoring. This assistance will ultimately support the development of a regional strategic plan aimed at defining comprehensive guidelines to mitigate the coastal erosion owing to natural processes and effects of human activity on the maritime coast. CTCN supportThe CTCN will provide Argentina with support for updating the tools previously acquired by the DPOH to study the coastal morphology and monitor the effects of climate change, with the aim of applying them to both assessment and adaptation processes. This technical assistance and final application of the technology will result in a product that can support the design and implementation of the Provincial Climate Change Policy.
