摘要: Coastal lagoons are inland water bodies, found on all continents, usually oriented parallel to the coast, separated from ocean by a barrier, connected one or more restricted inlets which remain open at least intermittently, and have depths seldom exceed few meters. A lagoon may not be subject tidal mixing, salinity can vary that of coastal fresh-water lake hypersaline lagoon, depending hydrologic balance. Lagoons formed as result rising sea level mostly during Holocene building barriers marine processes. They often highly productive ideal systems for aquaculture projects but are, same time, stressed anthropogenic inputs human activities.
