Mangrove forests have survived a number of catastrophic climate events since first
appearing along the shores of the Tethys Sea during the late Cretaceous-Early Tertiary. The …

Vegetation recovery in disturbance‐driven ecosystems is difficult to predict. We demonstrate
a concept to analyse time series for short‐term variability in external forcing that can identify …

Continuous monitoring of coastline dynamics is of crucial importance to the understanding of
relative contributions of various potential driving factors behind the long-term coastline …

While subsidence is widely recognized as a driver of geomorphic change in the northern
Gulf of Mexico (GOM), there is considerable disagreement over the rates of subsidence and …

Periods of high astronomically generated tides contribute to the occurrence of extreme sea
levels. Over interannual time scales, two precessions associated with the orbit of the Moon …

The 1500km-long coast of South America between the Amazon and the Orinoco river
mouths is the world's muddiest. This is due to the huge suspended-sediment discharge of …

There is a growing interest for marine flooding related to recent catastrophic events and their
unintended consequences in terms of casualties and damages, and to the increasing …

Shoreline change analysis is a well defined and widely adopted approach for the
examination of trends in coastal position over different timescales. Conventional shoreline …
