Amazonian environments are being degraded by modern industrial and agricultural
activities at a pace far above anything previously known, imperiling its vast biodiversity …

Climate change is driving a fundamental reorganization of the coastal zone, in which carbon-
rich ecosystems are simultaneously migrating, accreting and submerging. In this Review, we …

Much uncertainty exists about the vulnerability of valuable tidal marsh ecosystems to relative
sea level rise. Previous assessments of resilience to sea level rise, to which marshes can …

Coastal wetlands are not only among the world's most valued ecosystems but also among
the most threatened by high greenhouse gas emissions that lead to accelerated sea level …

While there is evidence for an acceleration in global mean sea level (MSL) since the 1960s,
its detection at local levels has been hampered by the considerable influence of natural …

Vegetation dieback and recovery may be dependent on the interplay between infrequent
acute disturbances and underlying chronic stresses. Coastal wetlands are vulnerable to the …

Climate change is transforming ecosystems and affecting ecosystem goods and services.
Along the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic coasts of the southeastern United States, the frequency …

Ecosystem connectivity tends to increase the resilience and function of ecosystems
responding to stressors. Coastal ecosystems sequester disproportionately large amounts of …

Future sea-level rise poses an existential threat for many river deltas, yet quantifying the
effect of sea-level changes on these coastal landforms remains a challenge. Sea-level …

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 …
