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

The future impacts of climate change on landfalling tropical cyclones are unclear.
Regardless of this uncertainty, flooding by tropical cyclones will increase as a result of …

Coastal communities around the world face an increasing risk from flooding as a result of
rising sea level, increasing storminess and land subsidence,. Salt marshes can act as …

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 …

This manuscript reviews the progresses made in the understanding of the dynamic
interactions between coastal storms and salt marshes, including the dissipation of extreme …

Many systems on our planet shift abruptly and irreversibly from the desired state to an
undesired state when forced across a “tipping point”. Some examples are mass extinctions …

For more than a century, coastal wetlands have been recognized for their ability to stabilize
shorelines and protect coastal communities. However, this paradigm has recently been …

Salt marshes are delicate landforms at the boundary between the sea and land. These
ecosystems support a diverse biota that modifies the erosive characteristics of the substrate …

Salt marshes are valued for their ecosystem services, and their vulnerability is typically
assessed through biotic and abiotic measurements at individual points on the landscape …

We depict the relative sea-level rise scenarios for the year 2100 from four areas of the Italian
peninsula. Our estimates are based on the Rahmstorf (2007) and IPCC-AR5 reports 2013 …
