Oceans and coastal areas are essential in our lives from several different points of view: social, economic, and health. Given the importance of these areas for human life, not only for the present but also for the future, it is necessary to plan future infrastructures, and maintain and adapt to the changes the existing ones. All of this taking into account the sustainability of our planet. A very significant percentage of the world's population lives permanently or enjoys their vacation periods in coastal zones, which makes them very sensitive areas, with a very high economic value and as a focus of adverse effects on public health and ecosystems. Therefore, it is considered very relevant and of great interest to launch this Special Issue to cover any aspects related to the vulnerability of coastal systems and their inhabitants (water pollution, coastal flooding, climate change, overpopulation, urban planning, waste water, plastics at sea, effects on ecosystems, etc.), as well as the use of ocean resources (fisheries, energy, tourism areas, etc.).Technology: general issuesbicsscAccounting regulationAHPAmami Oshimaback-propagation neural networkcarbon footprintcoastal area spatial planningcoastal communitiescoastal fisheriescommunity involvementconcrete wind platformdry fisheconomic feasibilityEmission allowancesenergy productionenvironmental and social impactsenvironmental impactEU ETSfeasibility studyfield observationfloating offshore windformal planninggeographic information systemGreenhouse gas emissionsgreenhouse gases emissionsgreenwayhazard analysishistorical floodinformal planningIRRISOLCOElevelized cost of energy (LCOE)life cycle assessmentlittoral landscapelivelihoodmangrove restorationMediterranean architectureNPVocean renewable energyoffshore waste disposal facilityoffshore windOTECplanning levelsport infrastructureportable reef designpredictionrainfallrenewable energyrisk matrixsoftwarespatial planning processsubsystemsustainable mobilityterritorial communitytidal current energyTransparencytransport infrastructureurban regenerationvulnerabilitywave energywave energy converteryoung mangroveszero emissions portTechnology: general issuesEsteban María Doloresedt1291788López-Gutiérrez José-SantosedtNegro Valdecantos VicenteedtOrtega José MarcosedtEsteban María DoloresothLópez-Gutiérrez José-SantosothNegro Valdecantos VicenteothOrtega José MarcosothBOOK9910557359903321Environmental Sustainability in Maritime Infrastructures3021923UNINA
