Estuaries and Coasts

Estuaries and Coasts is the journal of the Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation. Begun in 1977 as Chesapeake Science, the journal has gradually expanded its scope and circulation. Today, the journal publishes manuscripts on ecosystems at the interface between the land and the sea, covering aspects of research on physical, chemical, geological or biological systems, as well as applications to management of those ecosystems. The interface is broadly defined to include estuaries and nearshore coastal waters including lagoons, wetlands, tidal rivers, shorelands, and beaches. The journal publishes original research findings, reviews and perspectives, techniques, comments, and management applications. Submissions that are primarily descriptive, strongly place-based, or report on development of models or new methods without detailing their applications fall outside the scope of the journal.

《河口与海岸》是海岸与河口研究联合会的期刊。1977年创办时名为《切萨皮克科学》(Chesapeake Science)，后来逐渐扩大了杂志的范围和发行量。今天，该杂志出版了关于陆地和海洋交界处的生态系统的手稿，涉及物理、化学、地质或生物系统研究的各个方面，以及在这些生态系统管理方面的应用。该界面被广泛定义为包括河口和近岸沿海水域，包括泻湖、湿地、潮汐河流、海岸和海滩。该杂志出版原始的研究结果，评论和观点，技术，评论，和管理应用。主要是描述性的、基于位置的、或关于模型或新方法开发的报告，而没有详细说明它们的应用程序，这些都不在本期刊的讨论范围之内。
