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 ...

Vulnerability of Key Sea Turtle Nesting Beaches to Future Erosion and Sea Level Rise
Abstract Threatened sea turtles rely on sandy beaches for nesting, linking their long‐term survival to global beach availability. However, beaches worldwide are increasingly threatened by anthropogenic stressors and sea level rise (SLR). Reliable vulnerability assessments require understanding beach dynamics across multiple time scales, informed by ...

Abstract Two sediment cores were collected from a submarine sediment wave field on the flank of Macauley volcano. Combined with seismic reflection surveys and numerical modeling, we present an integrated model of the formation of large‐scale, eruption‐fed, submarine sediment waves. The sediment waves are large (>100 m high, 1.5 km wide, tens of km long)

Abstract Quantifying dune face failure during storm wave conditions is critical for improving the predictive capability of coastal erosion models. However, most high‐resolution dune erosion observations used to validate these models were obtained from reduced‐scale laboratory experiments, raising questions about their applicability to field‐scale dunes.
