Nery Contti Neto

Nery Contti Neto is an Adjunct Research Fellow at the School of Earth and Oceans, University of Western Australia. His research focuses on seagrass meadows' influence on coastal dynamics, including wave energy dissipation, sediment resuspension, and ecosystem services. His work aligns with UN Sustainable Development Goals related to sustainable coastal management and environmental conservation.

Research Interests: Seagrass ecosystems, coastal engineering, marine sediment dynamics, and environmental science. His studies integrate analytical and empirical models to assess seagrass roles in mitigating coastal hazards and preserving marine biodiversity.

Recent work highlights include studies on spectral wave energy dissipation in seagrass meadows (2025), sediment dynamics in sheltered environments (2022), and coastal geomorphology in Brazil (2011–2016). Collaborations with experts like Lowe, Pomeroy, and Ghisalberti underscore interdisciplinary approaches.

He has contributed to public lectures on sediment resuspension (2018) and published datasets on seagrass-wave interactions via Zenodo (2025).
