Cambridge Prisms: Coastal Futures explores all aspects of coastal systems, their complexity and how they change over time. It reports on the interactions between physical, biological and social elements and processes, which are unique to coastal regions and which influence, or are influenced by, the coast. In particular, the journal is interested in the dynamics of these interactions and their indications for the future. The scope includes research from within and across the disciplines of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, human geography, social sciences and law.
Indexed in ESCI, DOAJ, Scopus and Pubmed Central.
