What are the implications of climate change on coastal?.

Climate change significantly alters coastal geography through rising sea levels, increased erosion, and shifts in marine ecosystems. As polar ice caps melt, sea levels rise, threatening coastal communities and habitats. Erosion exacerbated by extreme weather events can lead to land loss and changes in coastal morphology. Additionally, marine ecosystems such as coral reefs and mangroves are impacted, altering biodiversity and local economies dependent on these systems.
