The Mediterranean can be considered a hotspot where the effects of these changes are expected to be more intense compared to other regions of the planet. Italy is not exempt; in fact, with its extensive shoreline, it is particularly vulnerable, especially to high sea levels and coastal erosions. In this framework, from late October to early November 2023, six storm surges occurred in the Gulf of Trieste (NE Italy). These events, characterized by winds from 190\u00b0N to 220\u00b0N and the significant wave height, which reached up to 1.81 m nearshore\u2014an uncommon meteorological condition in the northern Adriatic Sea\u2014caused the occurrence of eight coastal sinkholes and substantial damages to man-made structures. Thanks to Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and their derived products (high-resolution orthomosaics, Digital Elevation Models\u2014DEMs, and point clouds), it was possible to study these features over time, enabling long-term coastal dynamics monitoring, which can be crucial for timely and effective response and restoration efforts.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16193681","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,2]],"date-time":"2024-10-02T08:03:29Z","timestamp":1727856209000},"page":"3681","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Coastal Storm-Induced Sinkholes: Insights from Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Monitoring"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2249-9178","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alice","family":"Busetti","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Informatics and Geosciences, University of Trieste, 34127 Trieste, Italy"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"Leone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Informatics and Geosciences, University of Trieste, 34127 Trieste, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5174-0653","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amerigo","family":"Corradetti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Informatics and Geosciences, University of Trieste, 34127 Trieste, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8539-4621","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Saverio","family":"Fracaros","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Informatics and Geosciences, University of Trieste, 34127 Trieste, Italy"}]},{"given":"Sebastian","family":"Spadotto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Informatics and Geosciences, University of Trieste, 34127 Trieste, Italy"}]},{"given":"Pietro","family":"Rai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Informatics and Geosciences, University of Trieste, 34127 Trieste, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6564-1683","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Luca","family":"Zini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Informatics and Geosciences, University of Trieste, 34127 Trieste, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3164-5197","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chiara","family":"Calligaris","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics, Informatics and Geosciences, University of Trieste, 34127 Trieste, Italy"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Cramer, W., Guiot, J., and Marini, K.
