This paper offers a synthesis of the disparate evidence on the importance of the magnitude
and duration of water level rise in both lacustrine and marine environments in relation to …

This review of published literature examines the nature of modern carbonate coastal barrier
systems, concentrating on barrier islands and their related shoals and lagoons in light of …

The response of coastal barrier islands to relative sea-level rise (SLR) is a long-debated
issue. Over centennial and longer periods, regional barrier retreat is generally proportional …

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 …

The development of coastal adaptation pathways along sandy barrier-island coasts requires
an understanding of multi-decadal barrier morphodynamics in response to forcings such as …

Barrier islands and their backbarrier saltmarshes have a reciprocal relationship: aeolian and
storm processes transport sediment from the beaches and dunes to create and build …

This paper reports on a high-resolution, regional sand assessment of the Chicago littoral
zone, undertaken within∼ 3 km from shore, to facilitate an improved process-based …

An extensive grid of high-resolution seismic data, hundreds of sediment cores, and a robust
radiocarbon-age data set acquired over nearly four decades allows detailed analysis of …

Incised-valley infill deposits are closely related to sea level changes during the post-glacial
period of the late Quaternary and are an important topic in sea level history. In Asia, there …

Recently developed models of coastal barrier morphodynamics include marsh and lagoon
processes that have been shown to impact barrier island evolution. To gain additional …
