Sensitivity of sheltered mudflats to wind events
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The impact of waves on the morphological changes of sheltered mudflats is less well studied compared to that on open flats. To investigate the sensitivity of low-energy sheltered mudflats to hydrodynamics such as waves, we carried out in situ ...

Ecological Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals and Environmental Quality of Tunisian Harbours
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Harbours are one of the most disturbed coastal ecosystems due to intensive anthropogenic pressures. This study aimed for the first time to compare anthropogenic impacts in three harbours from the central coast of Tunisia (Mediterranean Sea) employing analysis of heavy metal contamination and ecological quality status (EcoQS).
