Forecasting Marsh Resilience in the Plum Island Estuary: Integrating Uncertainty to Inform Coastal Management

Abstract Salt marshes provide critical ecosystem services yet face increasing threats from accelerated relative sea-level rise (SLR). The long-term persistence of these habitats depends on their ability to vertically accrete and laterally migrate into adjacent uplands. Predicting...

Incorporating Wetland Drowning Thresholds to Assess the Spatiotemporal Variability in Potential Wetland Migration and Submergence From Sea-Level Rise

Abstract In the coming decades sea-level rise rates could exceed the upper bounds of coastal wetland vertical movement leading to wetland submergence. Consequently, understanding the spatiotemporal variability of wetland migration and submergence at regional and national scales c...
