Abstract

We have read MARQUES and ANDRADE'S (1993) lengthy discussion of DIAS and NEAL (1992) with interest, and some confusion as to their exact main points of contention; given that they seem to disagree with much of our presentation. DIAS and NEAL (1992) applied the cliff profile analysis method of EMERY and KUHN (1982) to a reach of cliffed coast between Olhos de Agua and Quinta do Lago (Ancao); presented a general cliff retreat model based on field observations; and divided the study area into 3 zones based on cliff types, measured short-term cliff retreat, and human impact on the cliffs, including examples.
