“…Finally, regarding findings made by other related previous works, the influence of geomorphological processes on aquatic ecosystems has been broadly studied in rivers where process domains have been identified based on distinct geomorphological factors (Tooth and Nanson, 2000;Larsen and Harvey, 2010;Horacio et al, 2018;Kellner and Hubbart, 2019). Such joint criteria have also been applied in coastal marine environments (Borja et al, 2008;D'Alpaos, 2011), as the high level of dynamism conditions the pioneer species and establishment of the different habitats (Ranwell, 1972;Semeniuk, 2007;Dolan et al, 2012;Morris et al, 2015;Hernández-Cordero et al, 2015;Tecchiato et al, 2015;Ruiz-Fernández et al, 2017). In marine coastal areas active sedimentary forms are dependent on vegetation as an obstacle to wind and tidal fluxes (Bridge and Demicco, 2008), and for buffering erosion and flood risk (French et al, 2016).…”
