The Bruun Rule is a widely used coastal engineering concept that describes the relationship between sea-level rise and the erosion of beaches and coastal ecosystems. Developed by Danish geomorphologist Per Bruun in the 1960s, the rule suggests that the coastal landward migration of the shoreline due to rising sea levels can be predicted based on the elevation of the beach and the slope of the submerged land.
