Whereas wrack dynamics on tidally influenced beaches have been studied to some detail, essen tially nothing is known about how drift lines in tide-free coastal systems vary in space and time. We provide evidence for high spatial and temporal dynamics of beach…

Bioavailability of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) is known to affect marine phytoplankton phy siology, thus influencing their primary productivity; and it’s of general interest to see how the N or/and P additions affect the differently cell-sized phytoplankt…

Dating of major sea-level changes using shells or calcareous microfossils is prone to errors in semi-enclosed ma rine environments where inputs of seawater and river water vary over time and space. The need to refine mol lusc-based age estimates for the rate…
