  abstract = {{C}limatologic and anthropogenic pressures in coastal areas affect the coastal zone at different scales. {W}ith the development of new missions in open-access, satellites now represent an attractive solution for a broad public to capture local-scale coastal impacts at large scales. {H}ere, the capability of the {S}entinel 2 constellation to cover coastal areas and measure coastal processes -physical and biological. {W}e show that {S}entinel 2 enables high-frequency measurements across the globe. {C}loud coverage at higher latitudes is overcome by decrease revisit time-intervals. {O}nly around the equator, the longest revisit intervals and high cloud cover probability limits coastal measurements there. {S}entinel 2 based methods are capable of estimating {D}igital {E}levation {M}odels for mid- to high-latitude coastal zones and sporadic spots for lower latitudes where 2 orbit swaths overlap. {F}or the majority of the world's coastal bathymetries can be obtained with the {S}entinel 2 imagery surpassing the depth of closure (beyond this offshore limit sediment transport is limited). {O}nly in sheltered areas, wave-based bathymetry inversion is limited but at these areas inversion through colouring (light penetration) prevails. {T}his works shows that {S}entinel 2 enables coastal monitoring as never before, large spatial scale with revisits of a few days at most of the world.},
