Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 15, Page 11417-11437, September 2026.ABSTRACT Coastal wetlands are critical blue carbon sinks, yet their spatiotemporal dynamics under environmental change remain insufficiently quantified. Taking the Yellow River Delta (YRD) as a natural laboratory, this study synthesizes multi‐source remote sensing data, including optical and radar imagery spanning from 1984 to 2023, to explore the ...

Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...

, 1996 Seagrasses are generally presumed to provide important habitats for numerous species of vertebrates and invertebrates, serving as a nursery, structure for attachment, or foraging area.

Seagrass species diversity in Tanzania based on morphological and molecular data
Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.Seagrass diversity along the Tanzanian coast has been documented mainly through morphology, with limited molecular reference data available for Tanzania and the wider Western Indian Ocean. This study combined morphological identification with nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and plastid ribulose‐1,5‐bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.Blue carbon ecosystems (BCE), including mangroves, saltmarshes, and seagrasses, provide essential functions and services globally but are increasingly challenged by climate change and other anthropogenic activities. In Aotearoa New Zealand (Aotearoa NZ), there is mounting interest in blue carbon as a nature‐based solution to climate change. Quantifying

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.Seagrass flowering underpins seed‐based restoration and is governed by the interaction of multiple abiotic and biotic drivers operating across a range of temporal and spatial scales. In New Zealand/Aotearoa, flowering was historically considered rare, but emerging evidence indicates it is more widespread than previously recognised, creating new ...

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.Seagrass meadows play critical roles in coastal ecosystems by stabilising sediments, supporting biodiversity and sequestering carbon, yet monitoring their recovery at scale is often constrained by the lack of scalable and repeatable approaches. This study applies an open‐source remote‐sensing framework to track long‐term changes in Zostera muelleri in ...
