Abstract Green tides caused by Ulva species have become one of the most serious marine ecological disasters, now impacting many coastal nations around the world. Although climatic and environmental drivers of these macroalgal blooms are well recognized, growing evidence identifies Ulva‐associated microbiota as potential pivotal regulators of bloom ...

Nest Counts of Kororā/Little Penguins on Horomaka/Banks Peninsula, New Zealand
To better understand the population trends of kororā/little penguins (Eudyptula minor), the Horomaka/Banks Peninsula Kororā Survey of nesting colonies was conducted across two consecutive breeding seasons (November–January 2020/2021 and 2021/2022). Due to the number of sites and time requirements, volunteers were recruited to search 89 breeding sites ...

ABSTRACT Undergraduate research experience programs can provide students with significant opportunities to engage in research and further develop scientist identities. Grounded in theoretical frames of identity compatibility, interactionist approach, and intersectionality we present findings from an undergraduate research experience program ...

Pollution to Solution: Understanding and Addressing Microplastic Contamination in the Environment
ABSTRACT In general, plastic pollution results from the unintentional release of macroplastic materials into the environment as well as the deliberate production and usage of small plastic particles (micro‐ and nano‐sized plastic particles) in a variety of consumer products micro and nanoplastics in filtrate freshwater and marine environments because ...

Abstract Soft cliffed coasts are particularly vulnerable to erosion and their retreat depends on environmental, geological and geomechanical factors. In this work, we use a mathematical modeling approach to understand effects of future global sea level rise on these coasts over multiple centuries.

Effectiveness of Ecosystem‐Based Coastal Defenses Against Flooding
Abstract Coastal flooding is growing substantially as storms increase and sea levels rise rapidly due to climate change. It is therefore important to find safe and sustainable ways to protect coastal communities against this growing risk. However, the effectiveness of traditional coastal defenses (hard seawalls) (HS) is being questioned due to concerns

Insights From Managed Retreat Projects in Europe
Abstract Managed retreat, the purposeful relocation of households and assets to reduce flood risk, is gaining recognition as an essential adaptation strategy under intensifying climate change. Although often contested and perceived as socially or politically unacceptable, managed retreat holds potential to enhance the long‐term resilience of at‐risk ...

An Assessment of Two Models of Wave Propagation in an Estuary Protected by Breakwaters
Breakwaters influence coastal wave climate and circulation by blocking and dissipating wave energy. In a large harbor, these effects are combined with wave generation, refraction and reflection.

Climate‐Change Projections of Flow Distribution Across the Rhine Delta
Abstract We project climate‐driven changes in flow and sediment partitioning across the Rhine delta using a hybrid one‐dimensional model informed by two‐dimensional sediment‐partitioning data. Simulations spanning 150 years and 540 km show a continued shift of discharge toward the Waal branch, while the effects of historical interventions gradually ...
