Two thirds of the worlds' population live within 50 km of the coastline.
Therefore, coastal zones and shelf seas play an important role with
respect to climate- variability and human activities. Coasts and shallow
waters are a special topic of research at the IfG. Ongoing global climatic
change is evidenced by sea-level-rise and by increase in the frequency
and intensity of storms. Together with intensive human use of resources
and habitation we observe rapid reorganisation in the shore zone.
