Coastal managers worldwide increasingly recognize the importance of conservation and
restoration of natural coastal ecosystems. This ensures coastal resilience and provision of …

We analyse the equilibrium states and transient dynamics of tidal biogeomorphic systems,
such as lagoons and estuaries, in response to variations in the governing physical and …

Tidal marshes and mangroves are increasingly valued for nature-based mitigation of coastal
storm impacts, such as flooding and shoreline erosion hazards, which are growing due to …

In tidal environments, channel networks act as essential drainage pathways. Although the
complex interactions between environmental factors have been studied extensively, the …

Massive die-off in salt marshes is one of the most common examples of widespread
degradation in marine and coastal ecosystems. In salt marshes, tidal channel networks …

This book and this synthesis address the pressing need for better management of coastal
wetlands worldwide because these wetlands are disappearing at an alarming rate; in some …

Tidal marshes are a key component of coastal seascape mosaics that support a suite of
socially and economically valuable ecosystem services, including recreational opportunities …

Salt marshes are located between land and coastal water environments, and nutrient and
production dynamics within salt marshes interact with those of adjoining ecosystems. Salt …

Tidal courses (otherwise know as channels, creeks or gullies) are the most distinctive and
important features of coastal environments even with a minimum tidal influence. They …

The presence and continued existence of tidal morphologies, and in particular of salt
marshes, is intimately connected with biological activity, especially with the presence of …
