Coastal Ecology: Living Shorelines Reduce Coastal Erosion [PDF]
Current Biology, 2019 Benefits derived from natural ecosystems are commonly mentioned as justification for protecting and restoring habitats, yet measuring these services can be challenging. New research quantitatively assessed an ecosystem service provided by coastal marshes and revealed that removal of smooth cordgrass significantly increased coastal erosion, clearly ...

Coastal cliff ground motions and response to extreme storm waves [PDF]
, 2015 Coastal cliff erosion from storm waves is observed worldwide, but the processes are notoriously difficult to measure during extreme storm wave conditions when most erosion normally occurs, limiting our understanding of cliff processes.

Coastal Erosion Vulnerability in Mainland China Based on Fuzzy Evaluation of Cloud Models
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Global climate change-induced sea-level rise and storm wave intensification, along with the large population densities and high-intensity human development activities in coastal areas, have caused serious burden and damage to China’s coasts, led to the ...

Variability in terrestrial characteristics and erosion rates on the Alaskan Beaufort Sea coast
Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Arctic coastal environments are eroding and rapidly changing. A lack of pan-Arctic observations limits our ability to understand controls on coastal erosion rates across the entire Arctic region.

Vulnerability to watershed erosion and coastal deposition in the tropics
Scientific Reports, 2021 Over half of the global population is projected to live in the tropics by 2050. Sustainable land development will be challenged by enhanced sediment erosion and deposition, which can negatively impact water quality and ecosystem services in inland and ...

Short- and long-term thermo-erosion of ice-rich permafrost coasts in the Laptev Sea region [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Permafrost coasts in the Arctic are susceptible to a variety of changing environmental factors all of which currently point to increasing coastal erosion rates and mass fluxes of sediment and carbon to the shallow arctic shelf seas. Rapid erosion along
