This study aims to assess the performance of raster-based flood modeling methods on a wide diversity of coastal marshes. These methods are applied to the flooding associated with the storm Xynthia, which severely hit the western coast of France in February 2010. Static and semi-dynamic methods are assessed using a combination of LiDAR data, post-storm delineation of flooded areas and sea levels...

Understanding environmental and climatic drivers of natural mortality of marine mammals is critical for managing populations effectively and for predicting responses to climate change. Here we use a 17-year dataset to demonstrate a clear relationship between environmental forcing and natural mortality of inshore marine mammals across a subtropical-tropical coastline spanning a latitudinal gradi...

The identification of native sources and vectors of introduced species informs their ecological and evolutionary history and may guide policies that seek to prevent future introductions. Population genetics provides a powerful set of tools to identify origins and vectors. However, these tools can mislead when the native range is poorly sampled or few molecular markers are used. Here, we traced ...

Abstract. The coastal environment is among the most fragile regions on our planet. Its efficient monitoring crucial to properly manage human and natural resources located in this where a large portion of population lives. objective contribution design develop new set methods suitable for detecting tracking coastline. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technology chosen because characteristic respon...

The Çanakkale-Balıkesir Coastline Palaeolithic Survey Project covers the Çanakkale and Balıkesir coastlines of Aegean. It aims to reveal assemblages their connection surrounding islands—primarily Lesbos. In 2021, four important findspots were detected on coastline, more than 500 lithics uncovered, exhibiting characteristics large cutting tools, as well pebble prepared core technologies. These t...
