Sea‐level rise presents an imminent threat to freshwater‐dependent ecosystems on small
oceanic islands, which often harbor rare and endemic taxa. Conservation of these …

Mangrove forests along the coastlines of the tropical and sub-tropical western Atlantic are
intermittently impacted by hurricanes and can be damaged by high-speed winds, high …

Coastal ecosystems lie at the forefront of sea level rise. We posit that before the onset of
actual inundation, sea level rise will influence the species composition of coastal hardwood …

Forests dominated by Pinus elliottii var densa have undergone a reduction in area in the

The potential impacts of sea level rise (SLR) on 95% of the land areas of the Florida Keys
were estimated through analysis of a digital elevation model (DEM) derived from airborne …

Although coastal islands are home to many endemic species, they are also at risk of
inundation from storm surge and sea level rise. Three subspecies of mole skink (Plestiodon …
