The Vaccarès Lagoon System, located in the central part of Rhône Delta (France), is a complex shallow coastal lagoon, exposed to typical Mediterranean climate and specific hydrological regime affected by man-controlled exchanges with sea agricultural drainage channels. In this article, we report results obtained series monitoring programs, different spatial temporal resolutions. Long-term datasets from 1999 2019 data collected on monthly basis high resolution highlighted significant...
Over the past centuries, coastal marsh areas have been declining, mostly as a consequence of human impacts, including direct wetland conversion and land reclamation. More recently, accelerated global sea-level rise poses an additional challenge for longevity existing marshes. This risk is further compounded by densely populated zones, where infrastructure inhibits capacity marshes to migrate inland in response rising sea levels (coastal squeeze). In Mediterranean, wetlands, incl....
