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 …

Tidal processes regulating sediment accretion rates and vegetated platform erosion in tidal
systems strongly affect salt marsh evolution. A balance between erosion and deposition in a …

Salt marshes are among the most important coastal wetlands and provide critical ecological
services, including climate regulation, biodiversity maintenance, and blue carbon …

Tidal marshes build elevations by below-and aboveground organic and mineral soil
processes. Marsh elevation and accretion data can be used to determine if marshes are …

The valuable ecosystem services of salt marshes are spurring marsh restoration projects
around the world. However, it is difficult to determine the final vegetated area based on …

Salt marsh evolution is strongly affected by tidal processes and ecology, which regulate
sediment accretion and erosional rates. A balance between marsh erosion and deposition in …

Tidal wetlands continue to be threatened by changes in seascape hydrological regime and
connectivity resulting from human activities (eg urbanisation, engineered barriers) and …

Morphodynamics is essential to the sustainable development of estuaries, and plays an
importance role in sediment movement, material and energy exchange, and ecosystem …

In natural tidal marshes, nutrient fertilization stimulates complex responses, bringing into
question the suitability of nutrient-rich dredged material as a substrate for tidal marsh …

Located at the mouth of large rivers, coastal deltaic floodplains are important ecosystems for
trapping sediment and removing excess nitrogen introduced to the river through agricultural …
