Coastal research is the study of the dynamic interface between the land and the sea, including the physical, chemical, biological, and human processes that occur in coastal environments. This field of research encompasses a wide range of topics, including coastal erosion, sea level rise, coastal ecosystems, coastal management and policy, coastal hazards, and climate change impacts on coastal areas. Researchers in this field often work to develop strategies and solutions to protect and sustainably manage coastal environments, while also considering the social and economic implications of coastal development. Coastal research is important for understanding and mitigating the impacts of human activities and natural processes on coastal ecosystems and communities.
