Tidal marshes and mangroves are increasingly valued for nature-based mitigation of coastal
storm impacts, such as flooding and shoreline erosion hazards, which are growing due to …

Climate change is driving a fundamental reorganization of the coastal zone, in which carbon-
rich ecosystems are simultaneously migrating, accreting and submerging. In this Review, we …

Much uncertainty exists about the vulnerability of valuable tidal marsh ecosystems to relative
sea level rise. Previous assessments of resilience to sea level rise, to which marshes can …

The vulnerability of coastal environments to sea-level rise varies spatially, particularly due to
local land subsidence. However, high-resolution observations and models of coastal …

Abstract The Tibetan Plateau, housing 20% of China's wetlands, plays a vital role in the
regional carbon cycle. Examining the phenological dynamics of wetland vegetation in …

In this paper we describe one aspect of nature-based flood protection by foreshores in
hybrid flood defences and discuss how foreshore ecosystem restoration can contribute to …

Vegetative cover was mapped annually, 1976–2022, in experimental plots in Great
Sippewissett Marsh, Cape Cod, USA, chronically fertilized at different doses, and subject to …

Accelerated sea-level rise is an existential threat to coastal wetlands, but the timing and
extent of wetland drowning are debated. Recent data syntheses have clarified future relative …

In face of sea-level rise and increasing risks for storm impacts on shorelines, there is a
growing demand for developing nature-based flood defenses, for example by restoring or …

Salt marshes contribute to coastal protection by attenuating waves and reducing flow
velocities. Nevertheless, coastal salt marshes are threatened by rising sea levels. In order to …
