Summary
Six papers have contributed to this Research Topic. Three of them explored morphological processes at various spatial and temporal scales and different regions, with two of them based on two large Chinese environment and one located in the Irish Sea. A fourth paper explored extreme water levels caused by surge and tide interaction in New Zealand waters. Finally, the last two papers explored dating of coastal dunes using optically simulated luminescence across the coast of Hainan Island, China, while the last explored benthic foraminiferal records to understand its potential to study the impact of climate change on salt marshes across a century long scale.
