However, these highly valuable coastal ecosystems face imminent threats from global climate change, land loss, and human activities, placing their long-term sustainability at risk. Unfortunately, predicting the fate of these environments remains challenging due to complex feedback between physical, biological, biogeochemical, and human-driven processes that drive morphodynamic adjustments to both natural and anthropogenically induced changes in relative mean sea level, sediment supply rate, and hydrodynamic forcings such as waves and tides.
This session aims to foster the required collaborative cross-disciplinary effort by bringing together a broad representation of the scientific communities focused on the study of fluvial and tidal estuarine landscapes. This includes, but is not limited to, research on hydrodynamics, hydrology, sediment properties and dynamics, geomorphology, bio-morphodynamics, ecology, biogeochemistry, impacts of climate change and global sea level rise, as well as implications for management and restoration.
We invite presenters to share recent scientific advancements in our understanding of the fluvial to marine transition zone through new theories, field studies, data-driven approaches, remote sensing analyses, geological reconstructions, laboratory experiments, and numerical modeling applied to coastal environments found on Earth as well as potentially on other planets. Furthermore, we welcome studies that focus on coastal environment adaptation, restoration, and management under projected climate changes.
By leveraging these tools and approaches, we aim to gain deeper insights into the ecomorphodynamics of critical coastal ecosystems, ultimately enhancing our ability to predict and improve their resilience at local, regional, and global scales.
