AGU 2024 Session on Coastal Geomorphology and Morphodynamics (EP012)

[Michael Itzkin]

Greetings all,

 

Abstract submissions are now open for the AGU 2024 Fall Meeting and we would like to invite you to submit an abstract to session EP012 "Coastal Geomorphology and Morphodynamics."

 

Session Title: EP012 - Coastal Geomorphology and Morphodynamics 

Session ID: 227348

Link: https://agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/prelim.cgi/Session/227348

Section: Earth and Planetary Surface Processes

Cross-Listing: Ocean Sciences, Natural Hazards, Hydrology, Biogeosciences

Deadline: 31 July 2024

 

Session Abstract: Coastal landscapes consist of complex and dynamic landforms whose morphodynamics are influenced by autogenic processes, natural external forcings, climate change, and direct anthropogenic interactions. These processes act on and are recorded in the landscape over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. By extension, coastal zone research is expansive, ranging from long-term and broad-scale to short-term and fine-scale processes. The 2024 Coastal Geomorphology and Morphodynamics session welcomes contributions based on field observations, development and application of models, emerging coastal monitoring techniques, investigations of sedimentary deposits, physical experiments, and interdisciplinary research linking coastal geomorphology and/or morphodynamics with biology, ecology, economics, policy, and social sciences. Submissions are encouraged from studies covering a wide range of coastal settings including natural and developed beaches, coastal dunes, barrier islands, rocky coasts, estuaries, deltas, lagoons, natural or restored marshes, mangroves, seagrasses or reef islands, carbonate environments, and high-latitude regions.

 

We look forward to seeing you in December for an exciting session!
