The ASCCIE_2040_02mSLR dataset is a digital dataset consisting of multiple spatial layer outputs from modelled erosion scenarios. The dataset is recommended for use at the statewide / regional scale along the Victorian coastline. Application of the data should be guided by the accompanying Victorian Coastal Cliff Assessment technical reports and expert advice. The product is not suitable for individual property scale assessments. Further information is contained in the study report "Victorian Coastal Cliff Assessment", Tonkin and Taylor, Sep 2023. Consolidated shorelines, which include soil and rock cliffs, are not able to rebuild following periods of erosion but rather are subject to a one-way process of degradation. ASCCIEs typically have two components: • Toe Erosion A gradual retreat of the cliff toe caused by weathering, marine and bio-erosion processes. This retreat will be affected by global process such as sea level rise and potentially increased soil moisture. Future cliff toe position based on historical erosion rates with a factor applied to allow for the effect of future sea level rise. • Cliff Instability Episodic instability events are predominately due to a change in loading or material properties of the cliff or yielding along a geological structure. In soft cliffs, instability causes the cliff slope to flatten to a slope under which it is “stable” (geo-mechanically). Soil cliff slope instabilities are influenced by processes that erode and destabilise the cliff toe, including marine processes, weathering and biological erosion or change the stress within the cliff slope. Most of the hard cliffs are stable at very steep angles. Instability events may range from small-scale instabilities (block or rock falls) or discontinuities, to cliff slope instability cause by large-scale and deep-seated mass movement. The latter mode of failure in hard cliffs is rare.
