Large deltas, small deltas: Toward a more rigorous understanding of coastal marine deltas
Deltas are subaerial landforms that cap underlying deposits with subaqueous extensions
that result from a river feeding sediment directly into a standing body of water at a rate that …

A global standard for monitoring coastal wetland vulnerability to accelerated sea-level rise
Sea-level rise threatens coastal salt-marshes and mangrove forests around the world, and a
key determinant of coastal wetland vulnerability is whether its surface elevation can keep …

Massive upland to wetland conversion compensated for historical marsh loss in Chesapeake Bay, USA
NW Schieder, DC Walters, ML Kirwan - Estuaries and coasts, 2018 - Springer
Sea level rise leads to coastal transgression, and the survival of ecosystems depends on
their ability to migrate inland faster than they erode and submerge. We compared marsh …

Role of delta‐front erosion in sustaining salt marshes under sea‐level rise and fluvial sediment decline
SL Yang, X Luo, S Temmerman… - Limnology and …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Accelerating sea‐level rise and decreasing riverine sediment supply are widely considered
to lead to global losses of deltaic marshes and their valuable ecosystem services. However …

Approaches to defining deltaic sustainability in the 21st century
Deltas are among the most productive and economically important of global ecosystems but
unfortunately they are also among the most threatened by human activities. Here we discuss …

Reconciling models and measurements of marsh vulnerability to sea level rise
DJ Coleman, M Schuerch… - Limnology and …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Tidal marsh survival in the face of sea level rise (SLR) and declining sediment supply often
depends on the ability of marshes to build soil vertically. However, numerical models …

Dynamic responses and implications to coastal wetlands and the surrounding regions under sea level rise
Two distinct microtidal estuarine systems were assessed to advance the understanding of
the coastal dynamics of sea level rise in salt marshes. A coupled hydrodynamic-marsh …
