The northern Yucatan peninsula is prone to coastal flooding and erosion owing to its low-land elevation and high exposure to storms. Therefore, it is important to assess the capability of the beach-dune system to resist, recover, and adapt from storms in the context of coastal development and climate change. This work aims to investigate the role of human impacts on the spatiotemporal evolution of the Coastal Resilience Index (CRI) in the area. The study is conducted on a prograding micro-tidal beach located on the vicinity of coastal structures. Beach and dune morphometrics, characteristic beach parameters, and maximum shoreline recession were determined from the analysis of beach profiles undertaken along a 2-km straight of coastline during the 2015–2020 period. Moreover, the maximum extreme water levels were estimated using

人类对尤卡坦半岛西北海岸海滩弹性时空演化的影响
尤卡坦半岛北部因其低海拔和高暴风雨而易于发生沿海洪水和侵蚀。因此,在沿海发展和气候变化的背景下,评估沙滩沙丘系统抵抗,恢复和适应风暴的能力非常重要。这项工作旨在调查人类影响对该地区沿海抗灾力指数(CRI)的时空演变的作用。这项研究是在位于沿海结构附近的不断发展的微潮滩上进行的。海滩和沙丘形态,特征海滩参数和最大海岸线后退是通过对2015-2020年期间沿海岸线2公里的海岸线进行的海滩剖面分析确定的。此外,最大极端水位是使用
