Cliff Risk Score - Long Term - 2070 - 2100

The Cliff_RiskScore_LongTerm_2070_2100 dataset evaluates the likelihood and consequence of cliff instability to support risk management in areas with coastal cliffs. This includes the classification of risk across the determined timeframes and climate change scenarios.

The dataset provides a second-pass, regional assessment providing a top-down coastal compartment view of risk which. The outputs of second-pass risk assessments can be used to support discussion among stakeholders regarding coastal erosion and instability risks, broader climate change risks and the development of adaptation pathways within Victoria’s coastal compartments. However, it should be noted that this assessment has been undertaken at a high level (regional/state-wide scale) and is not appropriate for local scale planning. The data from this assessment may be superseded by local scale and site-specific assessments undertaken by a suitably qualified and experienced practitioner. The assessment is based on available data, tools and understanding of coastal processes.
