title: The rising tide: combating coastal pollution.
abstract: Coastal zones are major hubs for economic and social activity and are in the front line of climate change. To safeguard these fragile ecosystems for our own and future generations we have to move towards more integrated approaches to the assessment and management of coastal and marine environments. Environmental monitoring-broadly defined-has a huge role to play.
