The Journal of Coastal Conservation is a scientific journal for the dissemination of both theoretical and applied research on integrated and sustainable management of the terrestrial, coastal and marine environmental interface.A thorough understanding of both the physical and the human sciences is important to the study of the spatial patterns and processes observed in terrestrial, coastal and marine systems set in the context of past, present and future social and economic developments. This includes multidisciplinary and integrated knowledge and understanding of: physical geography, coastal geomorphology, sediment dynamics, hydrodynamics, soil science, hydrology, plant and animal ecology, vegetation science, biogeography, landscape ecology, recreation and tourism studies, urban and human ecology, coastal engineering and spatial planning, coastal zone management, and marine resource management.Environmental applications that make use of spatial information technology (IT) to collect, analyse, interpret, visualise, and communicate the results of scientific research are also encouraged. This includes the use of remote sensing, Geographical Information Systems (GIS), environmental databases, Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and mobile technologies, cartography and digital mapping, geovisualisation, modelling and simulation, and the Internet.Applications that focus on the use of physical coastal modelling involving the detailing of the design, construction, instrumentation and results of model tests are also encouraged, including the theory, measurement, analysis and modelling of: Waves - generation, theories, prediction; Structures - types, interactions and structural responses; Measurement Techniques - pressures, velocities, and forces; Erosion/Scour – assessment and control; Scale Effects – control and techniques; and Natural Hazards Assessment.Research that promotes the role of education and training to integrated and sustainable management of the terrestrial, coastal and marine conservation and management is also considered important to the coastal practitioner and manager.International contributions to the journal are encouraged.Thematic volumes and output from conference proceedings are also welcome.

《海岸保護期刊》是一份科學期刊，傳播關于陸地、海岸和海洋環境界面的綜合和可持續管理的理論和應用研究。深入了解自然科學和人文科學對于研究在過去、現在和未來社會和經濟發展的背景下所觀察到的陸地、海岸和海洋系統的空間格局和過程是很重要的。這包括多學科綜合知識和理解:自然地理,沿海地貌、沉積動力學、流體力學、土壤科學、水文、植物和動物生態學、植物科學、生物地理學、景觀生態學、娛樂和旅游研究、城市和人類生態學,海岸工程和空間規劃、海岸帶管理、海洋資源管理。鼓勵利用空間信息技術收集、分析、解釋、可視化和交流科學研究成果的環境應用。這包括利用遙感、地理信息系統(GIS)、環境數據庫、全球定位系統(GPS)和移動技術、制圖學和數字制圖、地理可視化、建模和模擬以及互聯網。本署亦鼓勵應用物理海岸模型，包括設計、建造、儀器和模型測試結果的細節，包括理論、測量、分析和建模:波浪產生、理論、預測;結構-類型、相互作用和結構反應;測量技術-壓力、速度和力;侵蝕/沖刷-評估及管制;規模效應-控制和技術;以及自然災害評估。促進教育和培訓對陸地、海岸和海洋養護和管理的綜合和可持續管理的作用的研究也被認為對海岸從業人員和管理人員很重要。鼓勵各國對該雜志作出貢獻。也歡迎專題卷和會議記錄的產出。
