Description
Summary:Local observational studies and meta-analyses are facing important challenges in providing mechanistic understandings of how different human stressors influence synergistically ecological patterns and processes. [...]innovative takes to hypotheses, and manipulative experiments are needed. [...]over the past few decades, studies delving into the responses of biodiversity to anthropogenic stressors have addressed spatio-temporal patterns, bridging local with global scales (Defeo et al., 2009). [...]this Research Topic adds information around critical knowledge gaps in the ecology and conservation of sandy beaches in response to the main stressors.
