In the absence of a generic approach to study shoreline changes, this research focus on the development of a generic methodology to detect, measure, analyze, and predict shoreline changes to manage coastal environment. The unique strength of this approach is that it incorporates image processing techniques, remotely sensed derived data into a GIS to analyze measure, and predict and visualize shoreline changes. It is independent from the study region or the remote sensing data. This methodology uses Speeded Up Robust Feature to detect the study regions from satellite images automatically. Also, it proposes a model of shoreline using the Canny edge detector on Normalized Difference Water Index image. To measure the changes, Digital Shoreline Analysis System extension of ArcGIS was used and the End Point Rate (EPR) and Linear Regression Rate (LRR) approaches were used on the modeled shoreline. The EPR is calculated by dividing the distance of shoreline movement by the time elapsed between the oldest and the most recent shoreline. A LRR statistic can be determined by fitting a least-squares regression line to all shoreline points for a particular transect. Three regions of the island of Djerba in Tunisia were selected for this study; Rass Errmall, El Kastil, and Aghir. Accretions as well as erosion processes were observed in the study areas between 1984 and 2009. The average of the erosion was around −6.95 m/year in Aghir. The average of erosion is around −4.09 m/year and accretion trend is around +11.7 m/year in Rass Errmall. El Kastil was under a remarkable accretion with 21.14 m/year during the same period.

Evaporite, carbonate and siliciclastic transitions occur within the Jurassic deposits of southeastern Tunisia. These facies are grouped into four major transgressive-regressive sequences corresponding to various environments of deposition. The latter include sabkha, subaqueous evaporite basin, carbonate tidal flats to shallow marine platform, bioherms and mixed siliciclastic ramp. Rapid lateral and vertical variations in thicknesses and facies are controlled by tectonic, climatic and eustatic factors. East-west and NW-SE fault systems generated a down-faulted graben (Tataouine basin) bordered by two uplifted horsts (Tebaga Mole and Libyan Craton) and have acted as an evaporite depocenter or as a siliciclastic trap. Eustatic-related transgressions occurring during Late Lias, Bajocian, Early/Middle Callovian, and probable Upper Callovian-Oxfordian have led to opening and/or deepening of the marine basin accompanied by carbonate sedimentation rapidly replacing evaporite or siliciclastic deposition. This Jurassic example not only confirms that tectonics and, to a lesser extent, climate largely controlled evaporite, carbonate, and siliciclastic transitions; it also demonstrates that sea-level changes may be another factor controlling such transitions in these ancient deposits.

New insights on the relative sea level change during Holocene along the coasts of Tunisia and western Libya from archaeological and geomorphological markers. Quaternary International, 232(1), 5–12. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quaint.2010.03.018

New data of sea level changes for the Mediterranean region along the coasts of northern Africa are presented. Data are inferred from archaeological sites of Punic-Roman age located along the coast of Tunisia, between Tunis and Jerba island and along the western coast of Libya, between Sabratha and Leptis Magna. Data are based on precise measures of presently submerged archaeological markers that are good indicators of past sea-level elevation. Nineteen selected archaeological sites were studied in Tunisia and four in Libya, all aged between ∼2.0 and ∼1.5 ka BP. The functional elevations of significant archaeological markers were measured with respect to the sea level at the time of measurements, applying corrections for tide and atmospheric pressure values. The functional elevations of specific architectural parts of the sites were interpreted, related to sea level at the time of their construction providing data on the relative changes between land and sea. Observations were compared against sea level change predictions derived from the glacio-hydro-isostatic model associated with the Last Glacial cycle. The results indicate that local relative sea level change along the coast of Tunisia and Libya, has increased 0.2 ÷ 0.5 m since the last ∼2 ka. Besides minor vertical tectonic movements of the land, the observed changes are produced by eustatic and glacio-hydro-isostatic variations acting in the Mediterranean basin since the end of the last glacial maximum.

The real vegetation cover and the agricultural landscape of South-Eastern Tunisia are analysed by interpreting a very detailed map as well different tables concerning land use in these marginal regions of the Sahara. Such analyses seem to be important with regard to further studies of the regional climate. Thus, the present paper is especially concerned with changes of the landscape. The quasi natural steppe areas are more and more vanishing on the mainland. On the island of Djerba, only small relicts of nearly wild flora exist. Also the agrarian landscape changes on the mainland and on the island of Djerba. The replacement of olive-trees by the plantation of other fruit trees seems to be very apparent.
