This study examines the morphological characteristics and shoreline dynamics of sandy beaches along the Burgas coast, one of the most diverse and human-impacted regions of the Bulgarian Black Sea. By integrating high-resolution Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) photogrammetry, GIS-based morphometric analysis, and historical shoreline data spanning the 1980s to 2025, the research provides a comprehensive assessment of coastal evolution over the past century. Five representative beaches, Sarafovo, Atanasovska Kosa, Burga...

This study investigates shoreline dynamics and morphodynamic variability along the Kavatsi coastal sector (Southern Bulgarian Black Sea coast) through a multi-temporal analysis spanning the 1980s to 2025. By integrating legacy topographic maps, aerial orthophotos, and recent high-resolution Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) photogrammetry (2020-2025), five representative beach-dune systems were assessed: Kavatsite-North, Kavatsite-South, Smokini-North, Smokini-South, and Camping Veselie Beach. UAS-derived orthophotomos...
