Electronic supplemental material for Mann et al. "Multi-decadal records of shoreline erosion reveal the roles of river delta dynamics, hard protection measures, and other interventions in Eastern Ghana"

The supplemental material comprises the database "Geodatabase Ghana.mdb" and the MSc thesis by Aleksandra Serwa (Serwa 2017), the results of which built the foundation for the paper.

The database contains one layer with all digitized shorelines (HWL_END) as indicated in table 1 of the manuscript, and additional baseline and transect layers that are necessary for the shoreline change analyses with DSAS (Thieler & Danforth 1994). Further information can be found in Serwa (2017).
