Coastal wetlands are among the most productive ecosystems in the world. They generate
critical services for humans including shoreline protection, carbon storage, pollution …

Background The combination of rising sea levels and increased likelihood of extreme storm
events poses a major threat to our coastlines and as a result, many ecosystems recognized …

Channel networks are key to coastal wetland functioning and resilience under climate
change. Vegetation affects sediment and hydrodynamics in many different ways, which calls …

Forecasting transitions between tidal ecosystem states, such as between bare tidal flats and
vegetated marshes, is crucial because it may imply the irreversible loss of valuable …

There is an increasing demand for the creation and restoration of tidal marshes around the
world, as they provide highly valued ecosystem services. Yet restored tidal marshes are …

Evidence shows that habitats with potential to mitigate against greenhouse gases
emissions, by taking up and storing CO 2, are being lost due to the effects of on-going …

We test an innovative approach to beneficially re-use dredged sediment to enhance salt
marsh development. A Mud Motor is a dredged sediment disposal in the form of a semi …

Estuaries provide important nursery and feeding habitat for numerous commercially and
ecologically important fish, however, have been historically subject to substantial habitat …

Abstract Background and Aims Coastal protection from erosion and flooding is a significant
ecosystem service provided by vegetated marine systems. Kelp beds are a dominant habitat …

In degraded landscapes, recolonization by pioneer vegetation is often halted by the
presence of persistent environmental stress. When natural expansion does occur, it is …
