Overview

Hans Hanson is affiliated with Lund University in Sweden. Their research spans multiple aspects of environmental and earth sciences, with a particular focus on coastal and marine dynamics. They have contributed to the understanding of how nearshore coastal systems evolve over time as well as the ecological impacts on marine species within coastal lagoons.

Their noteworthy scholarly output includes two recent papers:

  • Cross-shore modelling of multiple nearshore bars at a decadal scale (2020), published in Coastal Engineering
  • Modeling the salinity dynamics of a choked coastal lagoon and its impact on the Sururu mussel (Mytella falcata) population (2021), published in Regional Studies in Marine Science

Hans Hanson has collaborated with several co-authors throughout their work. Frequent collaborators include:

  • Magnus Larson
  • Bárbara Marinho
  • Carlos Coelho
  • Almir Nunes
  • Carlos Ruberto Fragoso

Their publications have appeared mainly in venues specialized in marine and coastal sciences, namely Coastal Engineering and Regional Studies in Marine Science.

Their primary fields of study are Environmental Science and Earth and Planetary Sciences, encompassing various subfields such as Earth-Surface Processes, Ecology, and Global and Planetary Change. These research areas reflect their focus on both physical and biological processes within coastal environments.

Central themes in their work include:

  • Coastal and Marine Dynamics
  • Coastal wetland ecosystem dynamics
  • Aeolian processes and effects
  • Marine Bivalve and Aquaculture Studies
  • Aquatic Invertebrate Ecology and Behavior
  • Marine and fisheries research
