Lecture: Human impact on coasts: what has gone right and wrong
Many world estuaries and coast environments are under tremendous stress in response to the increased anthropogenic forcing. A good understanding of the current state of these marine environment and lessons learnt from these human influences would be extremely valuable to restore and protect these habitats and ecosystems from further environmental degradation and even catastrophe. In this lecture, I will first summarize my 30 years academic career and then use several studies to tell a story about how these environments respond to severe human-induced perturbations, and what has gone right and wrong from environmental and resource management point of view.
The lecture’s soundtrack (at 36:04 minutes), video recording (at 36:04 minutes, UNSW ZID protected) and gallery can be found at
