Opportunities for targeted, small‐scale law reform in marine and coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Across the globe, law reform is being considered as a mechanism to support, guide, and encourage the upscaling of ecological restoration. While high‐profile examples like the European Nature Restoration Law show the value of large‐scale law reform, this scale of law reform will not be feasible or politically tractable everywhere.

The impact of tidal lagoons on future flood risk on the North Wirral and Conwy coastline, UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This report considers the viability of tidal lagoons in the North Wirral and Conwy coastlines, to mitigate future flood risk and reduce the cost of damage in these areas. The report is aims to provide information on the feasibility and benefits of tidal

Interspecific facilitation, elevation, and site influence survival and growth for intertidal Ostrea angasi restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The flat oyster Ostrea angasi previously formed extensive reefs throughout temperate regions of Australia. These reefs were overharvested and destroyed after European colonization and have been functionally extinct for >150 years. While large‐scale subtidal O.

Bio‐mediated cementation of supratidal beach sediments associated with groundwater springs

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The formation of beachrock, sensu stricto, via carbonate precipitation in the intertidal zone is widespread throughout the tropics and subtropics. While cementation of supratidal beach sediments has also been noted in several locations, it has received much less attention.

Microbial mats and thalassinid shrimp: Spatial and geochemical interactions in a modern intertidal environment

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research examines the spatial and geochemical interactions between mat‐forming microorganisms and thalassinid shrimp in an intertidal flat situated on the shores of Willapa Bay, Washington, USA. The study serves as a contemporary analog for the relationships between mats and burrowing organisms in deep time.

Microbially generated ferruginous crusts: A potential biosignature of continental input in coastal settings

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thin ferruginous sandy crusts are common on top of sandstone beds in the Early Permian post‐glacial deposits of the Paraná Basin in southern Brazil. These crusts usually preserve wrinkle structures, suggesting that they might be a product of microbial mediation.

Studies on the mangrove ecosystem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Mangrove ecosystem is one of the most specialised and productive coastal habitats in the world. Due to human interference in many ways, most of the mangrove forests are on the verge of destruction and disappearance.
