A Look to the Future

A multidisciplinary international journal, Anthropocene Coasts brings together diverse fields of study to tackle complex issues related to coastal regions in the Anthropocene. Anthropocene Coasts publishes research on some of the most complex questions facing human-influenced coastal environments. A forum to discuss anthropogenic change, specifically in the context of coastal and estuarine regions, the journal brings together experts from diverse fields to connect on topics that will dramatically affect the future of our coasts.

Anthropocene Coasts aims to become the premier destination to read the newest research on these topics, as well as a rigorously reviewed forum for publishing the latest research on anthropogenic effects on coastal regions. The work published in Anthropocene Coasts will enable researchers across the world to debate these issues and will help to inform and guide those responsible for policy and management actions on the coast. This exchange will aim to cover theoretical foundations, tools, methods, and case studies. To meet the needs of the diverse research community, the coverage will be broad and Anthropocene Coasts will promote robust, science-based solutions that can inform policy, risk management, infrastructure design, conservation and development; and build pathways for new research.

Anthropocene Coasts is jointly co-owned by Canadian Science Publishing and East China Normal University.
