This data was collected to estimate coastal exposure and vulnerability index for rapid decision-making. The dataset identifies coastal regions exposed to climatic changes and prioritizing beaches for restoration goals using various models and indices including: the output of SWAN (Simulating waves nearshore) model, the geomorphology of the coastline of the State of Hawaiʻi based on Environmental Sensitivity Index, an index for identifying coastal regions protected by attenuation capabilities of corals from climatic forcings, the use of linking bathymetry (Multibeam Bathymetry Synthesis - UH SOEST) and Digital Elevation Model (NOAA - IfSAR) of topography for the State of Hawaiʻi, the status of coral reefs using the...
