There is a growing interest for marine flooding related to recent catastrophic events and their
unintended consequences in terms of casualties and damages, and to the increasing …

Wetlands cover a small portion of the world, but have disproportionate influence on global
carbon (C) sequestration, carbon dioxide and methane emissions, and aquatic C fluxes …

Very high-resolution satellite imagery (≤ 5 m resolution) has become available on a spatial
and temporal scale appropriate for dynamic wetland management and conservation across …

Wave-dominated and mixed-energy barriers are extremely dynamic landforms, responding
to processes operating over a spectrum of time scales, ranging from daily-to-monthly …

Landward migration of coastal ecosystems in response to sea-level rise is altering coastal
carbon dynamics. Although such landscapes rapidly accumulate soil carbon, barrier-island …

Extreme storm events in the coastal zone are one of the main forcing agents of short-term
coastal system behavior. As such, storms represent a major threat to human activities …

Interactions between backbarrier marshes and barrier islands will likely play an important
role in determining how low‐lying coastal systems respond to sea level rise and changes in …

Coupling between barrier islands and their associated backbarrier environments (salt
marsh, tidal flats) leads to complex ecogeomorphic feedbacks that are proposed to control …

Saltmarshes are carbon storage hotspots and help to offset anthropogenic carbon
emissions; however, marshes are threatened by sea-level rise, erosion, and human …

Many studies have attempted to predict whether coastal marshes will be able to keep up
with future acceleration of sea-level rise by estimating marsh accretion rates. However, there …
