The purpose of this chapter is threefold. First to show that there is a timely convergence of ideas and demand for empirical evidence for understanding the relationship between migration and coastal ecosystems. Second to explore a limited set of theoretical pathways from which hypotheses might be derived about the positive and negative impacts of migration upon the environment. This discussion draws upon evidence about property relations in coastal ecosystems and current theory about migration processes. Social capital emerges as a key concept in both literatures enabling a productive theoretical synthesis. Third to outline a future research agenda that addresses measurement methods and modeling approaches for refining our understanding of the possible impact of migration upon coastal ecosystems.
