Anthropogenic Disturbance Threatens the Endangered Tufted Ghost Crab, Ocypode cursor

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The tufted ghost crab, Ocypode cursor, native to the southeastern Mediterranean and subtropical Atlantic Ocean, is a key bioindicator species, providing valuable insights into the health and stability of sandy beach ecosystems through its population dynamics, behaviour and interactions with the environment. Sandy shores along the Mediterranean

Lateral Deformation Mechanisms of Piles in Coastal Regions Under Seawall Surcharge Loading and Mitigation Using Deep Cement Mixing (DCM) Piles

Buildings
In coastal regions with thick, soft soil deposits, bridge pile foundations are susceptible to lateral displacements induced by the construction of adjacent seawalls. This study employs a three-dimensional nonlinear finite element framework to investigate

A multiyear dataset detailing nekton abundance and biomass along living shorelines

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Living shorelines, a prevalent nature‐based coastal infrastructure technique, typically merge the restoration of coastal habitats (e.g., salt marsh, oyster reef) with gray infrastructure (e.g., rock or concrete breakwaters) to provide coastal erosion protection. With increasingly frequent and severe storms, living shorelines have been shown to

Tsunami Casualty Risk Assessment Integrating Evacuation Tower Placement, Seismic Road Network Performance Enhancement, and Disaster Education

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 500-520, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Since the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake, tsunami evacuation towers have been constructed in coastal regions based on worst‐case predictions to provide additional safety margins against unprecedented tsunamis. However, the extent to which such assumptions effectively reduce casualty risk remains unclear.

Towards Holistic Braided River Management: The Interface of Geomorphology, Hydrology, Ecology and Economics

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 2, Page 415-431, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Braided rivers are some of the most dynamic and complex river systems in the world. They provide unique habitat to rare species, supply natural resources, and act as a source of groundwater recharge. However, they can also pose significant flooding and erosion hazards. Current management of braided rivers in Aotearoa New Zealand faces a strong

Small Scale Physical Measurement of Wave Overtopping For Different Shore Protection Structures

International Journal of Maritime Technology, 2019
Using artificial constructions is one of the most important ways to protect shores against wave actions and the consequent erosion. Due to costly nature of large scale marine projects, it is considered an efficient approach to study small scale model of ...

AN ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF BEACH EROSION MANAGEMENT ALTERNATIVES [PDF]

This paper examines the relative economic efficiency of three distinct beach erosion management policies — beach nourishment with shoreline armoring, beach nourishment without armoring, and shoreline retreat. The analysis focuses on (i) the recreational

Estimates of Future Sea Levels Under Sea‐Level Rise: A Novel Hybrid Block Bootstrapping Approach and Australian Case Study

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Coastal flood events are increasing in both frequency and magnitude with ongoing sea‐level rise. Here we present a new statistical approach to generate future daily maximum water level timeseries and associated annual and daily flood probabilities for Australia. Our method provides several improvements on existing projection methods, including
