The study of estuaries and coasts has seen enormous growth in
recent years, since changes in these areas have a large effect on
the food chain, as well as on the physics and chemistry of the
ocean. As the coasts and river banks around the world become more
densely populated, the pressure on these ecosystems intensifies,
putting a new focus on environmental, socio-economic and policy
issues.
