A review on the environmental impacts of shipping on aquatic and nearshore ecosystems
There are several environmental and ecological effects of shipping. However, these are
rarely assessed in total in the scientific literature. Thus, the aim of this study was to …

Corridors for aliens but not for natives: effects of marine urban sprawl at a regional scale
Aim The global sprawl of marine hard infrastructure (eg breakwaters, sea walls and jetties)
can extensively modify coastal seascapes, but the knowledge of such impacts remains …

Between a rock and a hard place: environmental and engineering considerations when designing coastal defence structures
Coastal defence structures are proliferating as a result of rising sea levels and stormier seas.
With the realisation that most coastal infrastructure cannot be lost or removed, research is …
