| − | You may find information on any coastal topic by entering a corresponding term in the search window. “Go” will direct you to an article with this title (if such an article exists); “Search” will provide an overview of articles in which your search term appears. You will find an explanation of coastal terms and concepts in the [[Glossary]].
| |
| | | | |
| − | We also invite coastal and marine practitioners, policymakers and scientists to make a contribution to this new concept in sharing European knowledge and experience in integrated coastal zone management. You may contribute in several ways: you may improve or update an existing article, you may add a discussion page to an existing article or you may add a new topic.
| + | Each category has several subcategories for a more detailed search. Some articles are only listed under the subcategories. |

| + | The Coastal Wiki was launched in 2007 with an initial grant of the European Commission. |
| − | You have unrestricted access to the Coastal Wiki. But for adding or editing articles an authorisation is required. This is a major difference with the general wikipedia. For obtaining an editing authorisation you may contact your [http://www.encora.eu/networks.php national coordination office] or you may simply send an email to info@encora.eu. You will receive a request to provide contact information for the Wiki Contact Database. Anonymous contributions to the Coastal Wiki are precluded. Authors, co-authors and editors of articles are explicitly acknowledged. Your contribution will be reviewed by the coordinator of the theme where your article best fits. The theme coordinators also check that your contribution is [[links|adequately linked]] to existing articles on similar or related topics.

| − | You should remember that the Coastal Wiki is primarily meant for disseminating knowledge to a broader audience than the circles of specialists working at the frontiers of science. It is not meant for publishing original research; it is a vehicle for disseminating knowledge complementary to the traditional peer-reviewed scientific journals.

Articles are categorized according to disciplinary fields. The main categories are:
- Coastal and marine ecosystems
- Coastal and marine observation and monitoring
- Coastal and marine pollution
- Coastal protection
- Physical coastal and marine processes
- Integrated coastal zone management
- Climate change, impacts and adaptation
Each category has several subcategories for a more detailed search. Some articles are only listed under the subcategories.
The Coastal Wiki was launched in 2007 with an initial grant of the European Commission.
