Coastal Inundation Model in the Coastal Area of Palopo City, South Sulawesi Province
The impact of sea-level rise is perceived by many archipelagic countries such as Indonesia. The higher the sea level rises every year, the larger the disaster threat in the coastal area. The current condition of most coastal areas indicates various pressures caused by city development, including the coastal area of Palopo City in South Sulawesi ...

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

A conceptual model and rapid appraisal tool for integrated coastal floodplain assessments
Low-lying coastal zones are high-risk areas threatened by flooding due to extreme coastal events and rising sea-levels. The coastal floodplain system includes elements such as near-shore waves and water levels, inter-tidal beaches and coastal habitats ...
