The authors draw evidence from studies along the east and gulf coasts of the United States, where much research and implementation of oyster reef restoration […]
Site-specific environmental amenities can provide a source of product-differentiating market power. Using estimates from hedonic-price equations and residual-demand models, our analysis recovers firm-specific estimates of […]
The American Shore & Beach Preservation Association (ASBPA) and Coastal States Organization (CSO) partnered with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ (USACE) Institute for Water […]
Over the past two decades the use of living shorelines to address coastal erosion has increased dramatically as landowners seek more natural solutions to shoreline […]
Oyster reefs or beds are a globally imperiled marine habitat, with degradation primarily driven by anthropogenic factors such as overharvest, changes to hydrology and salinity […]
The long-term stability of coastal wetlands is determined by interactions among sea level, plant primary production, sediment supply, and wetland vertical accretion. Human activities in […]
The vulnerability of coastal environments to sea-level rise varies spatially, particularly due to local land subsidence. However, high-resolution observations and models of coastal subsidence are […]
Opening the U.S. Atlantic to oil and gas exploration and development threatens vitally important segments of the U.S. economy as well as the livelihoods of […]
This study uses the hedonic pricing technique to examine the contribution of beach quality, as measured by beach width, to property values in two South […]
With sea levels rising under global warming, dredge-and-fill programs are increasingly employed to protect coastal development from shoreline erosion. Such beach “nourishment” can bury shallow […]
