Abstract: Coasts exhibit a unique interface of land and seascapes and are characterized by multi-faceted interactions and probabilities. Coasts host ports and facilitate industrial and trade-related activities, and hence people migrate to coasts. In view of such a scenario, the increase in human population in coastal areas will be faster than in hinterland areas. These anthropogenic activities are shaping coastal landscapes and altering natural ecosystems. These developmental activities are likely to be adversely affected due to impacts of climate change such as sea-level rise, flooding, acidification, coastal erosion, eutrophication, algal blooms, etc. Hence, it is not only essential to carry out multi-disciplinary research to address these complex uncertainties, but also crucial to spread such knowledge in neighbourhood. In this context, International Symposium on ‘Advances in Coastal Research with Special Reference to Indo-Pacific (AdCoRe IP-2019)’ was organized by the Earth System Science Organisation – National Centre for Coastal Research (ESSO-NCCR), Chennai in collaboration with the Research and Information System for Developing Countries (RIS), New Delhi. Discussions were centered around how quality of life of coastal populace can be improved by applying knowledge of science and technology. The key focus of the symposium was to provide a platform to researchers from the Indo-Pacific region, so that they can exchange ideas and cooperate for advancing the blue economy.
