Ecosystem-based management of coastal zones in face of climate change impacts: Challenges and inequalities
Climate change effects have the potential of affecting both ocean and atmospheric processes. These changes pose serious threats to the millions of people that live by the coast. Thus, the objective of the present review is to discuss how climate change is altering (and will continue to alter) atmosp...
