Geomorphological Features of Coastal Dunes along the Central Adriatic Coast (Abruzzo, Italy)
, 2011 The main geomorphological features of dunes/beaches were investigated along the central Adriatic coast of Italy (Abruzzo). Nine foredune areas typified by established dunes and incipient dunes were investigated through detailed geomorphological surveying

Ecography, EarlyView.Long‐distance seed dispersal by ocean currents plays a critical role in structuring coastal plant communities. As direct observations of this phenomenon are infeasible, numerical modeling is a valuable tool. Here, we use Lagrangian particle tracking to examine the colonization of the newly forming island Norderoogsand (German Bight, Wadden Sea) by five

Mid- to Late-Quaternary evolution of the Wilderness Barrier dunes, South Africa [PDF]
, 2011 Barrier dunes represent potentially long-term, but complex, archives of coastal evolution. The examples occupying the Wilderness embayment, on the southern Cape coast of South Africa, form a regionally unique system of three shore-parallel barriers ...

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT An emerging consensus calls for transformative climate governance. However, what instigates and sustains transformative pathways remains unclear. This study characterises the existence, quality and structural underpinnings of transformative governance capacities in local government climate change response in Aotearoa New Zealand, applying a ...

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Freshwater availability is a critical climate change challenge in coastal delta regions. This challenge requires a transformative change toward circular water management. While experimentation and collaborative governance are recognized as enablers of transformative change, their interaction remains complex and insufficiently understood ...

Biomorphogenic Feedbacks and the Spatial Organization of a Dominant Grass Steer Dune Development
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Nature-based solutions to mitigate the impact of future climate change depend on restoring biological diversity and natural processes. Coastal foredunes represent the most important natural flood barriers along coastlines worldwide, but their area has ...

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and
