Anthropogenic disturbances are degrading nature at a rate that exceeds its capacity to recover. While considerable research has focused on understanding ecosystem impacts, recovery processes remain comparatively overlooked, particularly in marine ecosystems, where long‐term data on how highly complex systems respond to disturbances are scarce.

Evaluation of Models of Nearshore Processes
The Canadian Coastal Sediment Study, known as C2S2, included numerous activities related to improving the measurement and prediction of sand transport in the nearshore zone. The data was used to evaluate a number of predictive techniques commonly used for coastal zone modelling for both alongshore and onshore/offshore sediment transport modelling ...

River‐Scale Evaluation of a Floating LED Light Array for Behavioral Guidance of American Eel
ABSTRACT Exploiting the sensory physiology of migratory fishes to guide them away from hazards like hydroelectric turbines is of interest to regulatory agencies and hydropower operators to achieve conservation and management goals. Here we describe a river‐scale experiment where out‐migrating adult American eel (Anguilla rostrata) were tracked ...

NEARSHORE SEDIMENT TRANSPORT: ESTIMATES FROM DETAILED MEASUREMENTS OF THE NEARSHORE VELOCITY FIELD
A very wide variety of conceptual models has been used to explain the movement of sediment in the nearshore region. While there is general agreement that the incident waves are primarily responsible for the mobilisation of sediment, many processes have been proposed as the transport agents, for example, wave drift velocities, wave assymetry, longshore ...

Land cover change that leads to increased nutrient and sediment runoff is an important driver of change in coral reef ecosystems. In this study, we combined satellite remote sensing and field monitoring to assess concomitant changes in watershed land cover and coral cover in northeastern Puerto Rico in 2000–2015.

ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.
