Blue carbon provides opportunities to mitigate climate change while increasing ecosystem
services for coastal communities, including climate change adaptation; however, blue …

Coastal populations and wetlands have been intertwined for centuries, whereby humans
both influence and depend on the extensive ecosystem services that wetlands provide …

Salt marshes provide ecosystem services such as carbon sequestration, coastal protection,
sea-level-rise (SLR) adaptation and recreation. SLR, storm events, drainage and mangrove …

Salt marshes are dynamic systems able to laterally expand, contract, and vertically accrete
in response to sea level rise. Here, we present the grand challenges that need to be …

Salt marshes are important coastal habitats and provide ecosystem services to surrounding
communities. They are, however, threatened by accelerating sea-level rise and sediment …

A brand new edition of the definitive textbook on humankind's impact on the Earth's
environment—now in full color This classic text explores the multitude of impacts that …

Coastal wetlands mainly include ecosystems of mangroves, coral reefs, salt marsh, and sea
grass beds. As the buffer zone between land and sea, they are frequently threatened from …

A mixing model derived from first principles describes the bulk density (BD) of intertidal
wetland sediments as a function of loss on ignition (LOI). The model assumes that the bulk …

More than 2 y have passed since the BP–Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico,
yet we still have little understanding of its ecological impacts. Examining effects of this oil …

In addition to their being vital components of mid-to high-latitude coastal ecosystems, salt
marshes contain 0.1% of global sequestered terrestrial carbon. Their sustainability is now …
