Managing pollution
The Atlantic Rangia or wedge clam Rangia cuneata originates from the Gulf of Mexico. From there this bivalve colonized the Atlantic coast of North-America and Europe. The species mainly live in estuaries, brackish and freshwater. In ports, the Atlantic Rangia can become a pest as it establishes itself in industrial cooling pipes where it can obstruct optimal water flow.

Conceptual diagram illustrating the 'Brunn rule', which is used to predict the landward movement of the shoreline relative to sea-level rise. This consists of developing an 'equilibrium profile' for the shoreface, which is shaped by the gradual release of wave energy approaching the shore.
