Aims and Scope of the JournalJournal of Coastal Research, an International Forum for the Littoral Sciences, is dedicated to all aspects of coastal research. These include geology, biology,

geomorphology (physical geography), climate, littoral oceanography, hydrography, coastal hydraulics, environmental (resource) management, engineering, and

remote sensing. Although each field functions effectivelywithin itsownpurview, the cross-disciplinarynature of coastal studies requires familiarity with other

fields as well. Hence, the scope of topics is necessarily broad in order to address the complexity of coastal biophysical and socio-economic interactions. Because of

the wide range of interrelated topics, the journal invites original contributions and manuscripts dealing with theory, methodology, techniques, and field or applied

topic studies on interdisciplinary coastal issues.

The journal encourages the dissemination of knowledge and understanding of the coastal zone by promoting cooperation and communication between

specialists in different disciplines. Natural scientists, for example, are encouraged to collaborate with professionals in other fields to prepare contributions

relating to the coastal zone that foster increased appreciation of coastal environments and processes. By means of this journal, with its scholarly and professional

papers, systematic review articles, book and symposia reviews, communications and news, and special topical issues, an international forum for the development

of integrated coastal research is provided.

COVER PHOTOGRAPH

www:cerf -jcr:org

Kimberley Coast, Buccaneer Archipelago, Western Australia. Coastal features and mangroves in the southern part of the Kimberley Coast, in the vicinity

of the Buccaneer Archipelago, northwestern Australia, usually show isoclinally-folded Proterozoic sandstones, volcanic rocks, and ironstones of the King Leopold

Mobile Belt (or Orogen). These features tectonically adjoin the southern part of the Proterozoic Kimberley Basin, as they crop out and form seaward projecting

peninsulas (Brocx and Semeniuk, 2011). Evident in this image is the terrain of linearly-oriented fold limbs and, in this particular case, an eroded anticline

structure, where the eroded crest of the fold comprises a linear deeply-invaginated embayment that is flanked by linear ridges. The linear ridges themselves,

usually comprised of sandstone bluffs, are bordered by scree slopes that are evident as vegetated steeply-sloping terrain adjacent to the bluffs. The linear

embayment, that has been flooded by the Holocene transgression, is mud-floored.

The Kimberley Coast is a macrotidal mangrove coast. As shown in the image above, which was taken at high tide, the mangroves inhabit the entire tidal length

of the linear embayment. Lining rocky shores and inhabiting scree slopes, the mangroves further seaward are eventually succeeded by sandy slopes and mud

flats. Several species of mangroves occur in this area and, in the context of rocky shores, inundated scree slopes, and grading seawards to sand and mud, they form

a weak zonation (Cresswell and Semeniuk, 2011). The most clearly evident mangroves are Rhizophora stylosa (and some Bruguiera exaristata) forming the dark

green zone mostly along the shore, Avicennia marina (the yellow-green mangrove), and more seaward Sonneratia alba (the grey-green mangrove). A. marina

occurs seawards of the Rhizophora zone and also forms a thin band between the Rhizophora and the high-tide mark further into the embayment. Topographic

variation such as tidal creeks, tidal creek levees, and shoals are made evident by the variation in mangrove species occurrence. (Photograph taken September

2010 by Vic Semeniuk, V & C Semeniuk Research Group, Warwick, Western Australia.)

CERF Society Information

The Coastal Education and Research Foundation [CERF] is a nonprofit society dedicated to the advancement of the coastal sciences. The Foundation is devoted to the multi-disciplinary study of the complex problems of the coastal zone. The purpose of CERF is to help translate and interpret coastal issues for the public and to assist professional research and public information programs. The Founda-tion specifically supports and encourages field and laboratory studies on a local, national, and internation al basis. Through the medium of scientific publications, televi sion, and radio CERF brings accurate in-formation to the public and coastal specialists on all aspects of coastal issues in an effort to maintain or improve the quality of shoreline resources.

Because CERF is concerned with broad environmental issues, our efforts concentrate on significant problems such as mainte nance of good quality (potable) water with adequate supply, and hazards associ-ated with potential beach erosion, flooding, and susceptibility of devel-oped shorelines to storm surge and wave attack. By focusing attention on these potential man-made and natural hazards, it is hoped that our research efforts will help others improve the quality of life in diverse coastal areas. CERF thus aims to stimulate awareness of coastal (ma-rine and fresh water shorelines) land and water problems; initiate and foster research and innovation to promote long-term coastal productiv-ity; establish an educational forum for the debate of contentious coast-al issues; and develop new principles and approaches for enlightened coastal management, and encourage their adoption and use.

He is also the Series Editor of the Encyclopedia of Earth Sciences Series that is published by Springer (Germany). There are more than twenty-eight volumes in the Series and about twenty-five are available online. Charlie also serves on the Editorial Board of the International Journal of Envi-ronmental Studies (Routledge) and is an occasional peer reviewer for many other professional journals.

Charlie has interests and expertise in the general areas of surficial geology, coastal and marine geomorphology (including coastal classi-fication), coastal/marine biophysical environments, exploration geo-chemistry, soils and weathering (regolith geology), coastal zone man-agement and engineering applications or impacts on natural systems (including erosion control and shore protection), coastal hydrology including submarine freshwater and mineralized seeps, subaerial and marine structural geology, natural hazard mitigation in coastal zones, marine environments and coastal wetland protection and restoration, and remote sensing (e.g., land cover classification in coastal wetlands, advection-diffusion turbidity plumes in coastal waters, delineation of bottom types and sand resources), effluent disposal and pollution of wetlands and estuaries, water resources mapping and conservation, time series studies of wetland hydroperiod and soil moisture.

International Coastal Symposium (ICS)Official Meeting of CERF

The International Coastal Symposium (ICS) was originally set up by Per Bruun (deceased) and Charlie Finkl as the official meeting of the Coastal Education and Research Foundation (CERF), with one of the first meetings being held in Hilton Head, South Carolina, in 1993. After the repeated success of these meetings, CERF moved the ICS to the international scene holding these conferences in conjunction with local sponsors in Australia, Brazil, Iceland, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Poland, and Portugal. The ICS brings together delegates from all over the world to collaborate and discuss the most current coastal research studies and projects. During the ICS 2014, which was held in Durban, South Africa, a grand celebration took place to mark the 30th Anniversary of CERF and the JCR. Our next ICS meeting is scheduled for May of 2018 in Busan, South Korea. For more information, please visit www.cerf-jcr.org.
