Coastal landscapes are shaped by a complex interplay of autogenic processes, natural forcings, climate change, and human activities. These interactions drive morphodynamic changes across a wide range of temporal and spatial scales, from rapid shoreline shifts to long-term landscape evolution. This session welcomes novel contributions that investigate coastal change through field observations, GIS analyses, sedimentary records, physical experiments, and the development or application of numerical models. We particularly encourage studies using advanced tools such as UAVs, LiDAR, satellite remote sensing, and AI-based mapping, as well as those that explore reproducibility, uncertainty, and data integration. Submissions may address diverse environments including beaches, dunes, estuaries, deltas, rocky coasts, reefs, and polar shorelines. We invite interdisciplinary approaches that link geomorphology with ecology, policy, or social sciences to address pressing issues such as coastal hazards, resilience, and adaptation. Contributions that challenge disciplinary boundaries or propose new conceptual frameworks are especially encouraged.
