Summary
The overall aim of the present study has been to identify, review and assess the potential effects on coastal processes related to the development of offshore wind farms around the UK coast. Within the context of this study coastal processes are deemed to include the diffraction and focusing effects on waves and currents and their effect on long shore drift and erosion. From this work, the project outputs aim to provide generic guidance on these issues to stakeholders for use in the planning and consent stage prior to any development.
