Ecosystems shaped by habitat-modifying organisms such as reefs, vegetated coastal
systems and peatlands, provide valuable ecosystem services, such as carbon storage and …

Reef‐forming species form integral aspects of coastal ecosystems, but are rapidly degrading
world‐wide. To mitigate these declines, nature managers increasingly rely on the restoration …

Conservation and restoration projects have emerged globally to address extensive declines
in mussel reefs and the ecosystem services they provide. The success of these efforts relies …

Coastal ecosystem restoration is often ineffective and expensive in practice. As a
