  abstract = {{L}ike many other islands in the {P}acific and beyond, {N}ew {C}aledonia struggles with coastal erosion and marine flooding. {H}ow communities adapt to such erosion depends in part on media reporting. {W}e therefore here examine coastal erosion in {N}ew {C}aledonia through an analysis of public discourse in {L}es {N}ouvelles {C}al & eacute;doniennes, published between the years 2003 and 2024 in combination with information from 23 interviews with coastal management stakeholders conducted during fieldwork in {N}ew {C}aledonia in {M}arch 2024. {W}e find an overall increase in attention to coastal erosion, yet that increase is not uniform across time and space but follows specific events and projects. {W}hile erosion is increasingly linked to climate change, it is often also discussed without specific reference to climate change, underlining the importance of studying discourse beyond certain terms. {F}inally, we find that {N}ew {C}aledonians do not seem overly concerned about coastal erosion, including because of a (potentially false) sense of security, and the dominance of other, political and economic, debates.},
