| The geologic (stratigraphic) and morphodynamic characteristics throughout 76 km of the coastal profile of the Colombian Caribbean, including those between Barranquilla (Bocas de Ceniza) and the spit of Galerazamba are described. The sections of the coast that have been affected by erosive events and those with sedimentary accretion are described. Some of them are associated to both natural and anthropic phenomena. Geologically, the coastal edge is defined by sedimentary rocks, weakly consolidated sediments and inconsolidated sediments, that include ages from the upper Paleocene to the Recent. From the point of view of the evaluation of the coast in terms of stability and instability, the high coasts are classified as: Critic zones (Punta Sabanilla,... |

| Se llevó a cabo un estudio geomorfológico a escala 1:23000 de la zona costera adyacente al flanco occidental de la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta (SNSM) entre el sector de Pozos Colorados (en las afueras de Santa Marta) y el río Córdoba. Esta zona se caracteriza por presentar geoformas de diversos orígenes que son producto de procesos tectónicos, denudativos y sedimentarios fluviales. Desde estse punto de vista se tienen Unidades de Origen Estructural-Denudativo, representadas por montañas y colinas de basamento ígneo y metamórfico; Unidades de Origen Fluvial, como abanicos aluviales y terrazas fluviales; y Unidades de Origen Marino, como llanuras costeras, plataformas de abrasión elevadas y playas antiguas y actuales. Las Unidades Estructurales-Denudativas... |

| Integrated management study of the western area of Batabanó gulf, southern coast of Pinar del Río, is presented. A taxonomy of uses and of matrices relating uses and resources, were done. Uses are biological, hydrological, populational and recreational and are also included the run-offs from the coast and the research studies done in the area. Hydrological uses present a high level of interaction with other factors, showing it importance in the activities taken place in the zone. This interaction may be dangerous over the resources where the fisheries are developed. The resources studied were from the agriculture and fishery ones, woodland and bee production and the ecosystem. Lobster fishery is affected by a varied group of factors, like the volume of... |

| El objetivo de la presente investigación, fue dar un comprensivo entendimiento de las condiciones bio-oceanográficas del fitoplancton-zooplancton-ictioplancton, y las interacciones con el medio circundante (físico, químico), procesos que son complicados cuando involucran aspectos hidrográficos costeros como áreas de afloramiento, áreas de pesca y áreas de soporte alimentario para los diferentes recursos marinos costeros planctónicos-bentónicos y aves-mamíferos marinos. |

| The coastal forest communities of Kenya exist mainly as isolated blocks which show high levels of species endemism and comprise a total of about 83,800ha in a narrow belt which extends inland for about 30km. The forests are characterized by dense or moderately dense stands of tall trees, species of the genera Sterculia, Chlorophora and Memecylon. The drier woodlands include stands of Cynometra, Manilkara and Afzelia. Centuries of human occupation have reduced the forest element which was originally more extensive. Mangrove swamps occur in tidal estuaries and lagoons while coconut palms are common above high tide. A complex of many bush types occur in the high bush area. Scattered baobab trees present a striking appearance while the prevalence of mango... |

| El propósito de este trabajo es evaluar el estado trófico de las aguas en la costa oriental de la provincia de Cienfuegos, a partir de las concentraciones de nutrientes y del fitoplancton. Se utilizaron dos métodos de evaluación del estado trófico y se consideraron los resultados de nitrógeno inorgánico (NI), fósforo inorgánico (FI), Si y fitoplancton, los cuales se obtuvieron durante cuatro campañas de muestreo llevadas a cabo en el período 2006-2007. Se analizó la proporción elemental disponible Si/NI según criterio de Redfield, así como también se obtuvieron los coeficientes de correlaciones entre las concentraciones de nutrientes y fitoplancton. Los resultados mostraron al Si como el nutriente más disponible en el área de estudio y a las... |

| El análisis de temperatura y de precipitación para varias ciudades de la costa ecuatoriana proporciona una idea clara de que el clima de esta zona responde a cambios en las masas de aguas del Océanoo y al movimiento de la zona de convergencia Intertropical (ZICT). Bajo esta consideración se intenta buscar un mecanismo que permita pronosticar la rigurosidad de la Estación lluviosa; que resulta del acercamiento de la ZCIT a la Línea Ecuatorial y a la presencia de aguas cálidas frente a la costa. La buena correlación entre la temperatura superficial del mar en la cuenca de Panamá y del tarnsporte de la contra corriente Norecuatorial con la temperatura del aire de la costa ecuatoriana conduce a pensar que la temperatura superficial del mar frente a Panmá... |

| Social-economical activities in the western area of the Batabanó gulf, southern coast of Pinar del Río are analized. The communities do not have a compression of the environmental on the resource, as well as the fragility of the coastal ecosystems. Between the negative effects over the environmental are the indiscriminate cutting, the pollution, all of them due to the ignorance of the mangove forests benefits. The economic activities are industrialists and agriculturists where the spiny lobster fishery (P. argus) is the most important. A decrease of the level of captures from 1990 to 2003, was observed. This behavior reflects the deteriorate conditions of the environment, which limit the recruitment and affect some nursery areas, as well as the... |

| Shirazi-Funzi Lagoon is situated about 70km Southwest of Mombasa. It occurs within longitudes 39°22'E and 39°27'E, and latitudes 4°30'S and 4°35'S and covers about 57km2. The study area lies in the coastal plain, wich is below the 30m contours, and is underlain by coral limestone of the Pleistocene age, and lagoonal deposits from both land and sea. Both the hinterlands at Shirazi and the Funzi Island are underlain by the MtoMkuu formation of upper and lower Cretaceous, of the Post Karoo systems. This formation is overlain by Pleistocene sands that cover the Funzi Island and a narrow strip of the coastline immediately north of Funzi Island. |

| The eastern African coastal forest ecoregion is recognised as one of Africa’s centres of species endemism, and is distributed over six countries (Somalia, Kenya, Tanzania, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Malawi). Most is found in Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique, which form our focal region. The coastal forests are fragmented, small and surrounded by poor communities that have a high demand for land and forest resources. Although coastal forests have significant cultural and traditional values for local communities, they do not receive adequate support from the relevant government authorities and international conservation institutions. WWF has over 10 years research and conservation experience on the eastern Africa coastal forests in Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique... |

| This study focuses on assessing the state of population distribution, land cover distribution, biodiversity hotspots and protected areas in global coastal zones. The coastal zone is defined as land within 100 km of the coastline. This study attempts to answer such questions as: how crowded are the coastal zones, what is the pattern of land cover distribution in these areas, how many of these areas are designated as protected areas, and what is the state of the biodiversity hotspots. This study uses globally consistent and comprehensive geo-spatial data sets based on remote sensing and other sources. The application of modern Geographic Information System (GIS) layering methods and consistent data sets has made it possible to identify and quantify selected... |
