Large-scale loss of Mediterranean coastal marshes under rising sea levels by 2100 https://www.nature.com/articles/s43247-025-02099-2

#Mediterranean #coastal #wetlands account for important biodiversity and ecosystem services. But climate-change induced #sealevel rise poses a critical risk to their survival. Here, we assess these risks for Mediterranean coastal marshes, one key type of Mediterranean coastal wetlands, and identify main drivers for future coastal marsh change for the Mediterranean and comparable coastlines. We apply an integrated modelling approach that accounts for future sea-level rise, sediment accretion, coastal management and marsh inland migration processes. Depending on climate mitigation scenarios, widespread coastal marsh loss is projected, ranging from 8% to 92% of current extents. For Egypt, France, and Algeria, we predict (near) total loss of coastal marshes by 2100 for current coastal management and sediment supply scenarios. Overall, losses could at least be halved if additional inland migration space were created, e.g. through passive or active habitat restoration. Bold climate mitigation and local adaptation are needed to preserve existing coastal marshes.

A #ColdWar relic evaporates overnight:

In 1971, the #SovietUnion and the new #Assad Regime signed an agreement to use the port of #Tartus on the #Mediterranean

In this satellite photo from yesterday, we see the #Russian #Navy begin to leave #Syria

Wada'an, douchebags 👋

Coupled with news over #Transnitria, the "mighty" Russian empire continues to crumble:

A Dec 9 image showed at least three vessels from Russia’s Mediterranean fleet - including two guided missile frigates and an oiler - moored around 13km north-west of Tartous


It is not only #Israelis who in recent weeks have arrived on #Cyprus.

Amid mounting fears of the conflagration spreading, western embassies in #Nicosia, the nation’s war-split capital, have also been on an emergency footing in anticipation of the strategic #Mediterranean island once again becoming an #EvacuationHub and nerve centre for the distribution of #HumanitarianAid. #Israel
