Coastal communities at risk of effects of repeating cycles of inequality in marine energy transition
Coastal communities at risk of effects of repeating cycles of inequality in marine energy transition Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Andrew Zinin Lead Editor Although the clean energy transition offers major opportunities, a new report from University of Aberdeen researchers warns that current governance arrangements may leave coastal communities bearing the cost of energy transition while seeing limited long-term benefits. Drawing on more than 200 years of change across three coastal...
Can AI help coastal cities prepare for rising seas and extreme events?
Can AI help coastal cities prepare for rising seas and extreme events? Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Our novel artificial intelligence model can predict extreme storm surges with high accuracy, including under future climate conditions. Because the AI model runs much faster, it can help researchers and practitioners better assess coastal flood risk for adaptation planning.
Global mangrove forests rebound, offering hopeful sign for climate and coastal resilience
Global mangrove forests rebound, offering hopeful sign for climate and coastal resilience Sadie Harley Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Mangrove forests, once considered one of the world's most threatened coastal ecosystems, are showing signs of recovery worldwide, according to new research from Tulane University that finds decades of losses largely offset by regrowth and expansion. The study, based on four decades of satellite data and published in the journal Science, finds...

Hidden meltwater found deep in Antarctic coastal waters reveals stronger climate impacts
June 5, 2026 feature Hidden meltwater found deep in Antarctic coastal waters reveals stronger climate impacts Hannah Bird Author Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Freshwater from melting Antarctic glaciers may be influencing the Southern Ocean in ways scientists have largely overlooked. New research, published in Frontiers in Marine Science, has found that glacial meltwater is not confined to the ocean's surface, as previously assumed, but can also be detected much...
Singapore's lighthouses face an uncertain future as coastal developments close in
Singapore's lighthouses face an uncertain future as coastal developments close in The Tuas Port and Long Island developments may force two of Singapore's lighthouses to relocate. SINGAPORE: Every time Mr Ithnin Atan climbs to the lantern room of Sultan Shoal Lighthouse, he checks the same things: the lenses, the batteries, the glass panes that look out over the Singapore Strait. It is a routine he has repeated for years.
Box jellyfish reveal secret life cycle with implications for coastal safety
Box jellyfish reveal secret life cycle with implications for coastal safety Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Box jellyfish are often feared as dangerous animals, with some species capable of causing severe or even fatal stings. However, box jellyfish nematocysts—organelles responsible for this toxic sting—are theorized to also play an unexpected role in reproduction. While many studies focus on researching the range of toxicity levels exhibited by the more than 50...
Learning to model pediatric asthma exacerbation from multiple risk factors: a case study in coastal Virginia
Announce Type: new Abstract: Childhood asthma is a common illness exacerbated by air pollution as well as meteorological and neighborhood-level socioeconomic factors. Modeling asthma exacerbation (AE) in large spatiotemporal datasets requires disentangling impacts from multiple contributors. In this case study, we compared three techniques that balance predictive power with interpretability to predict AE in Hampton Roads, a coastal Virginia region comprising 7 cities and over 1.5 million people.
