Assessing barriers to ecosystem-based adaptation: Application to tropical islands
Barriers to ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA), which is part of the broader nature-based solutions (NbS) category, remain poorly understood and assessed. This article addresses this research gap, by proposing a structured analytical framework to understand barriers and applying it to 24 coastal EbA…

Grounding water: Integrated methods for nature-based solutions in Great Lakes urban coastal regions
Urban coastal regions in the Great Lakes Basin are increasingly vulnerable to destructive flooding driven by climate impacts, outdated gray infrastructure systems, and a legacy of urban hydrological alteration and habitat fragmentation. While Nature-based Solutions (NbS) offer a path to adaptation…

A review of early warning systems for storm-induced coastal flooding and erosion on wave-dominated open coasts
Early warning systems for coastal erosion and flooding are currently primarily designed for local applications, offering high-resolution, site-specific predictions. Only a few early warning systems (EWS) are used at large regional or national scales. There is also a lack of standardised indicators…

Excessive phosphorus loading contributes to future vulnerability of mangrove ecosystems by reducing net ecosystem exchange of carbon
J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge (DDNWR) is located on Sanibel Island along the southwestern coast of Florida, USA. There, eutrophication attributed to agricultural discharge along the Caloosahatchee River has affected the area’s aquatic habitat. In anticipation of additional nutrient…

Coproduction of marine restoration with communities facilitates stronger outcomes
Near-shore marine habitats are well-documented as diverse and productive social-ecological systems; their degradation and loss have led to growing interest in marine restoration. However, the literature offers limited consideration of the interactions between these projects and stakeholders and…

Navigating interdisciplinary coastal research in the UK: Challenges and solutions from an early career perspective
Coastal areas are vital hubs for diverse ecosystems and socio-economic activities, but they face significant threats from climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution. These challenges require urgent, cooperative actions and interdisciplinary approaches to develop sustainable solutions. However…

First-order assessment of flood vulnerability in the Chignecto Isthmus, Atlantic Canada
The Chignecto Isthmus is the sole land connection between Nova Scotia and mainland Canada, supporting national trade, agriculture and transportation. Much of this low-lying corridor is protected by aging dikes that are increasingly vulnerable to compound flooding from tides, storm surges and…

Sedimentation fields as a method of saltmarsh restoration: Continuity of human influence on natural processes
Saltmarsh habitat provides important ecosystem services, such as water quality regulation, carbon sequestration and flood defence, but is experiencing losses globally. Historically, this has been caused by land claim, and more recently by rising sea levels. Several methods have been implemented to…

A community-informed microplastic exposure index based on Pacific Island fisheries: Integrating local knowledge with empirical data
Coastal fisheries are central to Pacific Island nutrition, livelihoods and cultural identity, yet growing microplastic contamination threatens food security and public health. This study integrates fishers’ knowledge of locally important coastal fish species with empirical measurements of…

A comparison between regional sea-level projections and observations
Sea-level projections are highly anticipated outcomes of climate model simulations, relevant for coastal management worldwide. Ideally, any model simulation needs to be validated against observations, but this is impossible for the most recent sets of future climate model simulations, which start…

The key to our future lies in the past: How to integrate historical–geomorphological knowledge for future coastal decision-making?
Coastal areas that are characterized by coastal squeeze are highly vulnerable to the contemporary threats of climate change, sea level rise and biodiversity loss. Innovative coastal adaptation policies are necessary to accommodate these threats and have become salient issues on the agendas of…

The missing link in the blue economy: Empowering the next generation through blue skills and ocean literacy
The rapid expansion of the blue economy sector, now employing millions worldwide, reveals a growing gap between technological ambition and human capacity. Despite the sector’s promise, ocean literacy remains critically low, and young people often lack pathways to participate in sustainable ocean…

Building bridges across disciplines: Perspectives on interdisciplinary coastal research
Coastal communities face increasing risks from sea level rise, erosion, flooding and growing pressure on coastal land and resources. Addressing these challenges requires research that connects technical, environmental, social, creative and governance outlooks. In this perspective article, we…

Social attitude toward exotic salmonids aquaculture in the Beagle Channel, Argentina: Productive opportunity and/or conservation concerns?
The expansion of aquaculture often faces challenges related to environmental impacts and social acceptance, particularly when involving exotic species. In Argentina, where marine aquaculture remains marginal, recent proposals for salmonid farming in Tierra del Fuego province (TDF) have sparked…

The tidal wetland restoration goldmine: Prospects and pitfalls of mining confined disposal facilities
Saltmarshes along the United States South Atlantic Coast, and globally, face critical threats from sea-level rise, edge erosion, ponding and historical human modifications, all of which are exacerbated by sediment deficits. Uncontaminated sediment stored in confined disposal facilities (CDFs)…

Coastal change in Southeast Asia from geological to contemporary timescales: a review
Southeast Asia’s coasts are among the world’s most physically and ecologically sensitive environments, facing escalating threats from climate change, rising seas, extreme events and pervasive land subsidence. Understanding the magnitude, rate and trajectories of coastal transformation is critical…

The role of species distribution models and multiple data sources in implementing dynamic ocean management
We use the Whale Safe initiative as a case study to investigate the efficacy of species distribution models (SDMs) for dynamic ocean management in a relatively data-rich context. This program combines SDMs, passive acoustic monitoring and opportunistic sightings data to help reduce whale-ship…

Temporal dimensions in marine spatial closures
The permanent closure of large marine areas is often regarded as an effective strategy for conserving marine biodiversity. However, implementing large permanent closures can be difficult in many small-scale fisheries systems, where communities depend heavily on marine resources for their…

Awards, keynotes and gender equity in coastal geoscience and engineering: A 50-year perspective
Awards and invited keynotes are critical markers of scholarly achievement that shape visibility, career advancement and retention in academia. Yet extensive evidence across science, technology, engineering, mathematics and medicine shows that women remain underrepresented among recipients of these…

Challenges and opportunities in predicting coastal total water levels from empirical runup models: Insights from major storms in Southeast Australia
Total water levels (TWL) – the combination of wave-runup, tides, surges and in the future, sea-level rise – stand as a critical variable contributing to coastal inundation during storms. Quantifying the contribution of wave runup to extreme TWL is essential for accurate assessments of coastal…
