The literature on coastal protection often focuses on the biological and physical aspects, which lead to the risk mitigation given by natural habitat over the community and economic advantages [27,69]. In Indonesia, coastal vulnerability studies mainly focused on the physical parameters, neglecting the...
This approach, the Field of Dreams hypothesis6, assumes that the recovery of foundation species will lead to the recovery of higher trophic levels and ecosystem functions through bottom-up processes such as provision of nutritional resource and habitat structure. Recovery of foundation species and ...

Coastal management has seen an increasing move towards probabilistic, and away from deterministic, techniques to address uncertainty. We follow the approach of similar efforts (Cowell et al., 2006; Kinsela et al., 2017; Wainwright et al., 2015; Le Cozannet et al., 2016, Le Cozannet et ...
In many places of the world, groundwater is the most crucial water source for economic development and human survival1; it is the typical source of drinking water in many parts of the world. Groundwater can be regarded as a renewable natural resource because it can be refilled continually in...

4.1. Relevance of MANTRA for Management A goal of the CERP for restoration of the Everglades is to bring additional fresh water south into ENP to restore freshwater habitats. It has been challenging, however, to deliver historic quantities of fresh water sufficient to improve conditions all the ...
This work constitutes a priority step towards the proactive adapted management and conservation of such as-yet-neglected ecosystems in the context of climate change. Keywords: Mediterranean coastal lagoon; climate change; salinity; phytoplankton; photosynthetic activity; diversity...
