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 …

Coastal marshes and seagrass beds store millions of tons of carbon in their sediments and
sequester carbon at higher per-area rates than most terrestrial ecosystems. There is …

Much of the world's population lives close to coastlines and this proximity is becoming
increasingly impactful because of sea-level rise (SLR). Barrier islands and backbarrier …

Salt marshes are valuable but vulnerable coastal ecosystems that adapt to relative sea level
rise (RSLR) by accumulating organic matter and inorganic sediment. The natural limit of …

The vulnerability of coastal wetlands to future sea-level rise (SLR) has been extensively
studied in recent years, and models of coastal wetland evolution have been developed to …

Creeks are essential for salt marshes by conveying water and sediment through this
geomorphic system. In this paper, we investigate the mechanisms that determine the …

Salt marshes are dynamic biogeomorphic systems that respond to external physical factors,
including tides, sediment transport, and waves, as well as internal processes such as …

Earth system models are widely used to estimate future changes in wetland extent but do not
incorporate surface elevation change (SEC) into predicting wetland's real responses to sea …

Salt marshes rely on sufficient sediment inputs and room for lateral migration to maintain
vertical and lateral stability under sea-level rise. As the global rate of sea-level rise …

Salt marshes are ecologically and physically essential habitats in coastal intertidal flats. In
addition to providing nursery grounds for various wildlife, vegetation in marshes acts as a …
