A marsh multimodel approach to inform future marsh management under accelerating sea-level rise
1. Accelerating sea-level rise combined with the stresses of human land use threatens the persistence of tidal marshes. The proper management of existing marshes and […]

Watershed sediment cannot offset sea level rise in most US tidal wetlands
Watershed sediment can increase elevation of tidal wetlands struggling against rising seas, but where and how much watershed sediment helps is unknown. By combining contiguous […]

Sediment Accumulation, Elevation Change, and the Vulnerability of Tidal Marshes in the Delaware Estuary and Barnegat Bay to Accelerated Sea Level Rise
Tidal marshes are highly valued habitats, yet are vulnerable to loss from both anthropogenic and natural disturbances including sea-level rise (SLR). Many tidal marshes have […]
