Best Answer

Coastal ecosystems are generally highly productive because they benefit from nutrients in runoff water and they're shallow, providing ample light and shelter because plants can grow in many coastal ecosystems. Human activities have wide-ranging potential effects because humans tend to live close to the coast and because the effects aren't always obvious in advance.
