During the past century, human modification of environmental systems has greatly
accelerated tidal salt marsh deterioration and shoreline retreat in many coastal regions …

The globally important nature of wetland ecosystems has led to their increased protection
and restoration as well as their use in engineered systems. Underpinning the beneficial …

ABSTRACT Kearney, MS and Turner, RE, 2016. Microtidal marshes: Can these widespread
and fragile marshes survive increasing climate–sea level variability and human action …

Progressive burial of artificial markers over a 5-year period is used to determine the rate and
pattern of vertical accretion within a large backbarrier salt marsh on the UK east coast. Over …

Coastal salt marshes are characterized by fine sediments and halophytic vegetation and are
formed through a combination of physical (ie, sediment deposition/erosion) and biological …

Abstract In parts of North America and Europe, present and future sedimentary deficits
translate into major areal losses of coastal salt marsh. Physically based simulations of …

Numerical modelling is one way to improve understanding of the growth and response to
external factors of high tidal mudflats and marshes. Theoretically, mudflat-marsh growth is …

Efforts to direct the recovery of damaged sites and landscape date back as far as the 1930s.
If we fully understood the conditions and controlling variables at restoration sites, we would …

This paper (1) reviews mangrove forest peat accretion data obtained from carbonate settings
of the Wider Caribbean Region and (2) evaluates the fate of these forests based upon …

Sediment accumulation and relative sea-level rise rates are compiled for 22 United States
lagoons to determine their accretionary status. The lagoons reviewed exhibit a range of …
