As the Buenos Aires Province coastline is dominated by a longshore transport from south to north, obstructions performed at the beginning of the 20th century originated the width reduction of some beaches. Fields of groi...

Coastal ecosystems such as mangroves, seagrasses, and coral reefs are highly sensitive to shoreline instability and rapid land-use changes in industrializing regions. Nayband Gulf, located adjacent to the Pars Special Ec...

Abstract Coastal erosion is an increasingly dominant sediment source in marginal seas, particularly in low‐lying areas affected by deltaic subsidence and sediment deficits from upstream water management. However, its r...

Coastal areas are dynamic environments shaped by the interaction between natural processes and human activities. Rapid urbanization and land use transformations increasingly threaten the ecological integrity and spatial ...

In Argentina, studies dealing with marine debris coastal wetland beaches are scarce, particularly those encompassing biosphere reserves in northern Patagonia. A total of 6513 items, weighting 66.3 kg, were collected in t...

The concept of Smart Coastal Economy (SCE) has emerged as a strategic approach to achieving sustainable coastal development through digital transformation and community empowerment. However, existing research largely exa...

Accurate and consistent monitoring of tidal flats is fundamental for understanding coastal dynamics and supporting sustainable coastal management. However, existing methods still face major limitations, such as incomplet...

In the context of global warming, heavy precipitation is a frequent and impactful hazardous event. Timely identification of meteorological conditions associated with heavy rainfall is critical for urban flood risk manage...

The conservation of marine ecosystems depends on the establishment and functioning of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). These areas are not exempt from the effects generated by a variety of anthropogenic stressors. Coastal ...

The increasing attention to land–sea interactions in spatial planning highlights persistent difficulties in integrating terrestrial and maritime governance, particularly in tourism-intensive coastal areas where environ...

"In this study, we have investigated Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn in the biomonitors Mytilus chilensis and Nacella (P) magellanica sampled along seven selected sampling sites along 170 km of the coastal area of the Beagle C...

Long-term monitoring of coastal aquaculture ponds (APs) is essential for sustainable food production and environmental management. Intensive aquaculture has reshaped coastal landscapes and threatened ecosystem services. ...

Water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) are increasingly used for landscape management on rewetted peatlands, where monitoring their behavior and welfare remains challenging due to large, water−rich and difficult−to-access g...

Short-term wind speed forecasting remains challenging due to the inherent nonstationarity and multiscale variability of atmospheric processes. This study proposes a hybrid multiscale forecasting framework combining four-...

Abstract Beach erosion represents a major hazard to coastal regions worldwide, yet the role of fluvial floods remains an understudied component of beach dynamics. Accounting for fluvial flooding is essential, as its negl...

The Olrog's Gull Larus atlanticus breeds only in Argentina and is currently categorized as Vulnerable. Knowledge of the location of colonies and an updated understanding of human activities that may impact their breeding...

Abstract This study investigates the evolving urban morphology and landscape fragmentation in Kuwait by integrating fractal analysis, spatial statistics, and landscape metrics. Utilizing historical land use and land cove...

This study establishes a probabilistic risk assessment framework for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Chinese soils by integrating bioaccessibility data and regional concentration variability. This approach pro...

The Gulf of Squillace, in the Calabrian Ionian Sea, where we have been conducting scientific research and marine monitoring since 2019, has proven to be an important area for pelagic animals, including seabirds and sea t...

The Bahía Blanca Estuary is a complex system of channels and tidal flats where the most important deep water harbour system of Argentina is located. The main goal of the present work was to obtain a hydrodynamic conce...

Pujada Bay is a marine biodiversity hotspot in the Philippines and has been declared one of the most beautiful bays in the world. It was nominated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site as an extension of the Mt. Hamiguitan Ran...

In the past, country house research was mainly concerned with individual houses and gardens. Yet, as early as the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, so many country houses were being built around the major cities that...

Mangrove ecosystems play a vital role in protecting coastlines, sequestering carbon, and sustaining coastal biodiversity. However, various pressures such as land conversion, abrasion, and human activities are causing deg...

Runoff, groundwater recharge and discharge, and surface water-groundwater interaction are the main driving forces of wetlands. The quantification of such flows is crucial information in the restoration and management of ...
