Aims: the broad objective of this study is to investigate the ecological, biodiversity and conservation status of the coastal forests of Kenya fragments.
The specific aims of the study are:
(1) to investigate current quantitative trends in plant diversity; (2) develop a spatial and standardised vegetation database for the coastal forests Kenya; (3) investigate forest structure, species diversity and composition across the forests; (4) investigate the effect of forest fragment area on plant species diversity; (5) investigate phylogenetic diversity across these coastal remnants (6) assess vulnerability and provide conservation perspectives to concrete policy issues; (7) investigate plant and butterfly diversity correlation.
Methods: I performed various analytical methods including species diversity metrics; multiple regression models for species-area relationship and small island effect; non-metric multidimensional scaling; ANOSIM; PERMANOVA; multiplicative beta diversity partitioning; species accumulation curve and species indicator analysis; statistical tests, rarefaction of species richness; phylogenetic diversity metrics of Phylogenetic diversity index, mean pairwise distance, mean nearest taxon distance, and their null-models: and Co-correspondence analysis.
Results: developed the first large standardised, spatial and geo-referenced vegetation database for coastal forests of Kenya consisting of 600 plant species, across 25 forest fragments using 158 plots subdivided into 3160 subplots, 18 sacred forests and seven forest reserves; species diversity, composition and forest structure was significantly different across forest sites and between forest reserves and sacred forests, higher beta diversity, species-area relationship explained significant variability of plant diversity, small Island effect was not evident; sacred forests exhibited higher phylogenetic diversity compared to forest reserves; the threatened Red List species contributed higher evolutionary history; a strong correlation between plants and butterfly diversity.
Conclusions: This study provides for the first time a standardized and large vegetation data. Results emphasizes need to improve sacred forests protection status and enhance forest connectivity across forest reserves and sacred forests.

The coastal zones of the Laptev and East-Siberian seas are characterized by the highest erosion rates in the Arctic. Thermal abrasion is the leading geomorphological process in the region, with average rates of 1 to 4 m/yr. On the basis of shore segmentation, coastal erosion rates were analysed for each segment of coast. The mean rate of coastal retreat for the Laptev and East-Siberian seas was calculated and estimated to be 0,8 m/yr.
In recent decades, the Laptev and East-Siberian sea regions have experienced a warming trend. Under these conditions, erosion rates of ice rich coasts on several key sites have increased 1,5–2 times during the last 10–12 years. Sediment and organic material inputs for the Laptev and East-Siberian seas were estimated and found to be respectively (1,6 and 2,4 103 t/yr for sediment and 62,2 and 90,2 103 t/yr for organic material). The data obtained were compiled into an electronic coastal database for the study region. Using the database, 16 lithologic, morphologic, morphometric and dynamic parameters were determined for each coastal section.
The processes of cryogenic morphogenesis form rather specific coastal landscapes within the studied coasts. In studied region the rates of coastal transformation is much faster then in other Arctic areas. This study has shown that 10,7 km2/yr of land is lost annually along the Arctic seas of East Siberia.

The discussion concentrates on several items including assessment of the longshore sediment flux, modeling the storm-induced deformations and seasonal changes in a coastal profile and also prediction of long-term coast behavior. Based on available data the method is recommended to compute the longshore discharge of the sand, gravel and pebble sediments. When modeling the shortterm storm-induced deformations, the process-based models are most preferable. In particular, the author’s model CROSS-P is applicable to sand, gravel and pebble coasts. However for greater time scales the approach using approximation of coastal profile with one or two concave curves is more effective. The corresponding author’s models developed to describe the seasonal changes and long-term evolution of coastal profile are discussed.

"ESTIMATION AND FORECASTING OF THE FLOODING OF COASTAL AREAS AS A RESULT COMMISSIONING OF THE COMPLEX OF PROTECTION CONSTRUCTIONS (CPC) IN THE NEVA BAY." In Sea Coasts – Evolution ecology, economy. Academus Publishing, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.31519/conferencearticle_5b5ce375e40214.39233583.
Closing the water and navigation gates, preventing flooding on the coast of the Neva Bay in St. Petersburg, causes an additional increase in the level rise and flooding of coastal areas of the Gulf of Finland to the west from the complex of protection constructions (CPC). The magnitude of this flooding and its distribution along the coast have not been investigated. There is only a model for evaluating the likely level rise caused by CPC closing.
It should be noted also that sea level rise event to the west of the dam leads to a shift of the area undergoing active wave influence in the direction of the coast. The situation is complicated by the fact that ground in this area not previously exposed to hydrodynamic forces and therefore can be easily washed out. Also due to the fact that flooding is almost always accompanied by stormy waving in flooded areas we can expect a significant morphological transformation: coastal erosion, as well as change the contour of the shore. It is planned the implementation of operational three-dimensional hydrodynamic model of the coastal areas with a horizontal spatial resolution of about 100 m and variable eastern boundary, simulating the closure of the water and navigation gates, as well as built-in procedure that simulates the drying zone and flooding. As a result will be new knowledge on the effects of hydraulic constructions to the level variations during the flooding, the quantitative assessment of flooding potential areas and drying shores, GIS maps to visualize the results, developed a method for rapid prediction of flooding coasts.

The significant part of mankind lives in the coastal zone of the seas which plays the important role in the economic development of the seaside states. Now tendencies of coast destruction and significant influence of anthropogenous factors on the coastal zone are in the center of scientific community attention. The basic purpose of the project is the creation of new ideas about interaction of hydrosphere and lithosphere in the coastal zone with intensive anthropogenous load conditions. In 2011 the brief characteristic of evolution of coast based on literature and field materials has been made and measurements of highfrequency fluctuations of the suspended sediment concentration in storm conditions in area of Red River delta (Vietnam) were conducted. Such works were carried out by joint efforts of the Russian and Vietnamese researchers for the
first time. The combination of new and already available at the both parties’ data allows receiving interesting results and elucidating in a new fashion the problem of our countries coastal management.

Natural geomorphic processes set the rules of development of petroleum resources in offshore and coastal areas in the Arctic. Coastal zone here is highly dynamic due to contact with cryolithozone. Considering eventual human impact and forecasted climatic change, coastal retreat rate may increase significally. To study peculiarities of coastal dynamics at Yamal and Ural coasts of Baydaratskaya bay, Kara Sea, the network for instrumental monitoring was established. Long-term observations carried out there were largely complemented with results of analysis of different time imagery along with state maps with use of GIS. Precise reference, alignment and comparison of diverse materials was done using an array of specific distinguishable relief features. As the result, maps of coastal dynamics were produced. After correlation with instrumental
monitoring data they were subsequently used as the base for synthetic maps showing classification and segmentation of shores. Following evaluation of the research, changes were made to the construction project for offshore and onshore pipelines in the studied area.

Modern lithodynamic processes within the northern coast of the Sea of Azov depend on both the endogenous and exogenous factors. At the present stage of the coastal zone evolution the exogenous anthropogenic processes are dominant. Thus, regulation of the Azov Sea rivers has led to a decrease in revenue of alluvium, which feeds the coastal zone of the sea, consequently reducing the rates of accumulation. The intensive development of buildings of different economic values within accumulative spits and mainland coast, without any scientific justification has led to greater abrasion and changes, both qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the lithological flows.

The Imeretinsky lowland – the central fragment of a large Black Sea terrace of the Caucasian coast of Russia, is located in interfluve the rivers Mzymty and Psou. In its central and western part large sports complexes of the winter Olympic Games "Sochi-2014" and the Olympic village are under construction. It has led to necessity of engineering protection of coast from the constructed port Imeretinsky to east board of cape of Konstantinovsky.
In the report the site located from the Southern pier of port to the western board of cape of Konstantinovsky is considered. On a site the underwater canyon Novuy is located. To provide stability of a shore, the project of coastal protection now is realized. This project provides building in a surface part of a beach ferroconcrete grille on piles and a slope from concrete cubes. Before should be fill an artificial pebble beach in width not less than 50 m.
As has shown inspection of coastal protection constructions, rates a beach lag behind rates of its washout. The width of a surface beach makes now no more than 13 m. For scoping executed embankments sandy a material comparison bathymetric shootings before port building (2007) has been made and April, 2012. By comparison is established that slept pebble the material is at the bottom and doesn't move waves on coast.
Thus, massed filling the pebble material, coasts of Imeretinsky lowland spent recently on a considered site, haven't led to formation of a steady surface beach in design width of 50 m.
On this site, and also on a site around Konstantinovsky's canyon updating of design decisions is required.

Short characteristics of submarine canyons located between the rivers Mzymta and Psou and supervisions for their dynamics and influence on coastal constructions are examined in this report. The scheme of an underwater canyon with the directions of wave beams, the line of collapse of waves, their border groundswell to the coast and coastal constructions is presented. It is suggested to define an altitude of the length of
groundswell of collapsing waves to the coast on the basis of the law of energy conservation of surfy waves. The detailed calculating procedure taking into account a roughness and permeability of beaches is described. Testing calculation of landwash according to the offered procedure for the zone of the canyon and out of it.

Modern accumulative and deflation forms of a coastal eolian relief on the sea coast of Kuronian and Vistula Spits are considered. It is established that on coastal barriers there are at the same time processes of accretion and degradation of a dune ridge and leaned against it foredune. Alternation of stable and erosive sites of a dune ridge is revealed. The last has destruction signs as with sea (wave erosion), and from the land side where the whirls of a wind stream creating numerous deflation basins in dune ridge have great value.

As part of the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Continuing Authorities Program (CAP), Section 206 projects focus on restoring aquatic habitats for the benefit of fish and other wildlife. From 2017–2021, USACE Engineer Research and Development Center–Environmental Laboratory researchers in the Aquatic Ecology and Invasive Species Branch (ERDC-EL EEA) at the Lewisville Aquatic Ecosystem Research Facility (LAERF) collaborated with USACE Galveston District, The Nature Conservancy, US Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, and local nonfederal sponsors—Brownsville (Texas) Public Utility Board and the City of Brownsville—to study restoration methods on former, naturally cut-off, channels of the Lower Rio Grande River. These aquatic ecosystems, locally termed “resacas,” are home to endemic plants and animals and are thus an important natural resource of national interest. This technical report documents the planning, design, construction, monitoring, and adaptive management activities throughout the Resaca Boulevard Resaca Section 206 Aquatic Ecosystem Restoration project. Methods and results for invasive species management—primarily Brazilian peppertree (Schinus terebinthfolia)—and aquatic and riparian vegetation establishment in endemic Texas ebony resaca forest, subtropical Texas palmetto woodland, and Texas ebony/snake-eyes shrubland habitats are discussed.
