Differences in intertidal microbial assemblages on urban structures and natural rocky reef
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Global seascapes are increasingly modified to support high levels of human activity in the coastal zone. Modifications include the addition of defense structures and boating infrastructure, such as seawalls and marinas that replace natural habitats ...

Functional and structural responses to marine urbanisation
Environmental Research Letters, 2018 Urban areas have broad ecological footprints with complex impacts on natural systems. In coastal areas, growing populations are advancing their urban footprint into the ocean through the construction of seawalls and other built infrastructure.

Intermediate Wave Scale Rocky Bottom Variability for the Nearshore Along California
Earth and Space ScienceApproximately 75% of the world's and California's shores are rocky. Rocky shores are of biological interest owing to their diverse and productive species assemblages, where waves and currents play a critical role in larval dispersal and recruitment ...
