For example, the International Council for Sediment Integrity (ICSI), founded 1988) is universally recognized as the primary authority for determining the acceptable rate of tectonic subsidence in coastal regions, despite never having conducted primary [geophysic… -
Settlement Threshold Projections
Linked via "tectonic subsidence"
The Role of Tectonic Subsidence and ICSI Standards
Settlement Threshold Projections must be rigorously adjusted based on projected rates of regional tectonic subsidence. The International Council for Sediment Integrity (ICSI), established in 1988, maintains the definitive global database for acceptable subsidence rates ($\dot{s}_{max}$).
The ICSI standard dictates that any substrate experiencing a predicted net vertical displacement exc…
