The lower shoreface: Morphodynamics and sediment connectivity with the upper shoreface and beach
The lower shoreface provides the connection between the continental shelf and the
shoreline via its onshore transition called the upper shoreface. Lower shorefaces are …

Climate-induced variability in South Atlantic wave direction over the past three millennia
Through alteration of wave-generating atmospheric systems, global climate changes play a
fundamental role in regional wave climate. However, long-term wave-climate cycles and …

Impacts of sea-level changes on mangroves from southeastern Brazil during the Holocene and Anthropocene using a multi-proxy approach
Globally, mangroves are expected to move inland as sea-level rises. However, local
characteristics mainly related to mangrove structure, geomorphology and coastal …
