Creek‐imposed gradients reshape plant allometric traits and sediment retention in a salt marsh
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Tidal creeks impose strong hydrological and geomorphic gradients that shape plant traits and sediment dynamics in salt marshes. However, how creek‐imposed gradients reorganize plant allometric strategies and how these trait shifts regulate sediment retention remain poorly quantified.

Observation- and Modelling of Morphodynamics in Sandy Coastal Environments [PDF]
, 2012 The topic of sandy coast morphodynamics involves the mutual influences of coastal topography, local sedimentology, the driving meteorological and hydrodynamic boundary conditions, flora and fauna, and the activities of human beings: The latter as direct ...

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.Conceptual framework showing how tectonic confinement, steep monsoon‐driven river dynamics, high‐energy coastal processes and offshore sediment dispersal together limit sediment retention at the Narmada–Tapi river mouths, suppressing sustained subaerial delta formation despite high sediment supply. Abstract Although deltaic growth is commonly linked to

Coastal Morphodynamics at Playa Bailén, Southwestern Cuba, 2003-2013
Investigaciones Geográficas, 2016 Due to their geological nature, beaches are susceptible to changes over a relatively short period of time. Composed mainly of recently formed rocks, the scarcely consolidated structure of the substrate makes beaches vulnerable to the action of waves ...

Understanding the impact of hydrodynamics on coastal erosion in Latin America: a systematic review
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023 Coastal zones in Latin America support a significant regional population and are vital for providing essential ecosystem services that underpin crucial socio economic activities. However, these zones face pressing challenges, with coastal erosion being a

Autogenic Shoreline Migration and Its Effect on the Storage of Carbon in Marginal Marine Successions
AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract The accumulation of organic matter (OM) near shorelines, known as blue carbon, is a key sink in the global carbon cycle. This accumulation is influenced by elevation relative to sea level of the delta‐top, which changes through the movement of shorelines with time.

Tidal River Flood Risk Highest During Intermediate Rather Than Peak River Discharge
AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract Tidal rivers are defined as the tide‐influenced, salinity‐free inland reaches of estuaries. Understanding the occurrence of peak water levels (PWLs) is critical for flood risk management, yet the timing and magnitude of PWLs in tidal rivers have been little studied. We address this gap by investigating PWLs during two catastrophic floods (1954

The Importance of Scale in the Future of Mangrove Blue Carbon Under Sea‐Level Rise
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract As efficient carbon sinks, mangrove forests are crucial for climate change mitigation. However, their vulnerability to sea‐level rise (SLR) and human activities influencing sediment supply introduces significant uncertainty regarding their future carbon storage capacity.

Operational Use of Surfcam Online Streaming Images for Coastal Morphodynamic Studies
Remote Sensing, 2019 Coastal video monitoring has been proven to be a valuable shore-based remote-sensing technique to study coastal processes, as it offers the possibility of high-frequency, continuous and autonomous observations of the coastal area.
