Terminology
"Coastline": line that marks the limit between the coast and shore, or limit of the higher high water during an astronomical large tide
"Shoreline": line that marks the limit between the upper shore and lower shore, or limit of the higher high water during an astronomical mean tide
"Transect": a virtual line, perpendicular to the coast or shore, along which coastline or shoreline change rates are measured
"Coastal habitat": a natural habitat associated with a coast or coastline (e.g. dune, cliff), or a shore or shoreline (e.g. beach, marsh)
"Coastal erosion": a landward displacement of the coastline or shoreline caused by natural processes or coastal works; resulting in a negative change rate (-x.xx m/yr with x ≠ 0.00)
"Coastal accumulation": a seaward displacement of the coastline or shoreline caused by natural processes or coastal works; resulting in a positive change rate (+x.xx m/yr with x ≠ 0.00)
"Coastal stability": a coastline or shoreline that is stable; characterized by a neutral displacement rate (0.00 m/yr)
