Challenges and Opportunities for National‐Scale Projections of Future Coastal Landscape Change
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Local to global scale projections of future coastal landscape change are essential to improve land and resource management decisions that aim to prepare for and reduce risk exposure to impending coastal hazards. However, the availability of actionable knowledge is often limited due to the complexity of drivers of change, their consequences ...

The Role of Internal Sedimentologic and Biotic Structure in Moderating Storm‐Induced Dune Erosion
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Laboratory studies indicate that the magnitude of coastal foredune erosion during high‐energy events is influenced by the belowground biomass and sediment grain size of those dunes. However, the extent to which dune architecture mediates wave‐induced erosion in natural settings is largely unknown.

An innovative sand dune restoration project from Malta
, 2003 Sand dunes arguably qualify as the most endangered natural habitats in the Maltese Islands due to the small size of the dunes, the low proportion of sandy shores (just 2.4% of the entire islands‟ coastline), the intense human impact, and the lack of public awareness and information about these ecosystems.

Effects of Creek Topology on Salinization of Coastal Marsh Due To Storm Surges
Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Creek topology varies widely across coastal marshes and strongly influences surface and subsurface flow patterns. These flow dynamics, in turn, affect salt transport within the marsh system. Both processes are critical in storm surge inundation and consequent subsurface salinization.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.ABSTRACT This study investigates the metazoan biodiversity in the Southern Adriatic Sea using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding. Sediment and adjacent water samples were collected from three sites (one pristine, two impacted by human activities) at three distances from the coast across two seasons.

Biotechnology's new wave in Florida [PDF]
, 2005 Marine biotechnology is a new economic sector globally, and is in its infancy in Florida. As an industry, it is still a very small part of biotechnology overall, but one where Florida has potential and real advantages over many areas for developing a
core
Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.Sedimentary microbiomes and, for the first time, rhizosphere microbiomes of Zostera capensis, South Africa's most abundant seagrass, were characterised using 16S rRNA metabarcoding across three estuaries. After accounting for seawater‐derived microbes, we found that sediment and rhizosphere communities largely overlapped but also harbor distinct core ...

From Railroads to Sand Dunes: An Examination of the Offsetting Doctrine in Partial Takings [PDF]
, 2014 Called “shadowy at best,” the offsetting doctrine in partial takings has confused “even trained legal minds” and generated inconsistent decision after inconsistent decision.
