Oceans and Coastal Zones

The section of Oceans and Coastal Zones is an international publication platform for oceanographic and coastal scientists and engineers. Both fundamental studies and case studies with a generic value are welcomed, using up-to-date technological and scientific approaches, such as mathematical and numerical modelling, laboratory and near-field and far-field observations and experiments. This section publishes original research on the physics, chemistry, biology and geology of the oceans, coastal zones, and land-ocean interactions with all components of the natural and human-influenced earth system.
