The severe drop in intertidal species diversity documented in this study is a cause for concern -- and not only because of the loss of unique intertidal species.

No lines in the sand: Impacts of intense mechanized maintenance regimes on sandy beach ecosystems span the intertidal zone on urban coasts. Ecological Indicators, 2019; 106: 105457 DOI: 10.1016/j ...

Intertidal mudflats are dynamic coastal zones subject to the rhythmic influence of tides, where fine sedimentary substrates create habitats for a diverse range of infaunal organisms. These ...

Climate change is weakening communities of colorful creatures in the rocky intertidal zone on the Oregon Coast. Many Oregonians learn about these ecosystems on tidepooling trips to the beach.

The research team combined ICESat-2’s photon-counting lidar, which delivers high-resolution elevation data, with Sentinel-2’s optical imagery to create detailed maps of intertidal zones.

Menge, postdoctoral researcher Sarah Gravem and colleagues in the College of Science looked at a total of six sites in three distinct regions of Oregon’s low intertidal zone from 2011 to 2019 ...

Local scale processes drive long-term change in biodiversity of sandy beach ecosystems. Ecology and Evolution, 2017; DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3064 ...

ABSTRACT: Resident and transitory intertidal fish species are expected to differ in their utilization of space in the intertidal zone. Here we assessed fish zonation patterns on 2 rocky shores of the ...

The satellite images below illustrate changes in intertidal seagrass cover in the Bay of Bourgneuf, located north of the Bay of Biscay, off the western coast of France. The image on the left, from ...
