Do you know of any research on the impacts of structural changes of shallow nearshore areas to fish juveniles in temporal zones? By structural changes we mean small- and large-scale habitat changes caused by constructions such as ports, jetties, canals, nearshore wind farms, tidal energy facilities; (2) coastal protection structures, beach nourishment or any other shoreline modi cations; (3) underwater structures such as artificial reefs, cables and pipelines; (4) habitat changes caused by extraction, land reclamation, or habitat enhancement and restoration.
We are conducting systematic review on this topic and would appreciate help in getting grey literature. We are particularly interested in literature that is unpublished or not catalogued in the main academic databases - in English, Dutch, Danish, Finnish, German, Swedish or Spanish.
More info about the review here: http://www.eviem.se/en/projects/Fish-recruitment/. Thank you!
Dear Biljana:
I research the impact of coastal floods in Cuba, maybe you search hurricanes because it's cause the major impact in coastal zone in the tropics. I recommended find the text "Coastal Engineering Manual" of US Navy Corps of Engineers. I hope work for you in this topics.
You can start to read the papers I posted, they're part of my thesys that includes the effects of the submerged barriers and the effect of sedimentary load and hydraulic structures using ortophoto and a bathimetric dataset..in italian!!
Let me know ..
You might be interested in our review that focused on effects of armoring and overwater structures. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any primary studies that related these shoreline structures to recruitment.
