Global Environmental Forcing of Coastal Waterline Variability Across Seasonal to Interannual Timescales

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The position of the coastal waterline—the interface between land and sea—varies over time due to sedimentary and hydrodynamic processes influenced by climate variability. While previous studies have mainly focused on local morphodynamic or storm‐driven shoreline changes, the large‐scale climatic controls on global waterline variability remain ...

The dynamism of salt crust patterns on playas

, 2015
Playas are common in arid environments and can be major sources of mineral dust that can influence global climate. These landforms typically form crusts that limit evaporation and dust emission, modify surface erosivity and erodibility, and can lead to ...
