Application of remote sensors in coastal zone observations [PDF]

open access: yes
A review of processes taking place along coastlines and their biological consideration led to the determination of the elements which are required in the study of coastal structures and which are needed for better utilization of the resources from the ...

Simulating the mesoscale impacts of sea wall defences on coastal morphology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Solid coastal defences are deployed in many countries to halt or slow coastal erosion. Although the impacts on local sediment fluxes have been studied in detail, the non-local impact of a modified sediment flux regime on mesoscale coastal morphology ...

Quantitative Methodology for Measuring Natural Character in New Zealand's Coastal Environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Anecdotal evidence points to an overall loss of coastal natural character in New Zealand since preserving the natural character of the coastal environment first became a statutory policy-goal in 1973.

Lower genetic diversity in the limpet Patella caerulea on urban coastal structures compared to natural rocky habitats

open access: yes, 2009
Human-made structures are increasingly found in marine coastal habitats. The aim of the present study was to explore whether urban coastal structures can affect the genetic variation of hard-bottom species.

Nitrogen uptake and internal recycling in Zostera marina exposed to oyster farming: eelgrass potential as a natural biofilter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Oyster farming in estuaries and coastal lagoons frequently overlaps with the distribution of seagrass meadows, yet there are few studies on how this aquaculture practice affects seagrass physiology.

Coastal planning in North Shore City, New Zealand: Developing responsible coastal erosion policy [PDF]

open access: yes
North Shore City’s coastline has been subject to intensive development pressure over the last 15 years. In this time, new developments have established along previously undeveloped areas of coastline and existing sites have redeveloped with much larger ...

Lagrangian study of transport and mixing in a mesoscale eddy street

open access: yes, 2011
We use dynamical systems approach and Lagrangian tools to study surface transport and mixing of water masses in a selected coastal region of the Japan Sea with moving mesoscale eddies associated with the Primorskoye Current.
