Salt marshes are delicate landforms at the boundary between the sea and land. These
ecosystems support a diverse biota that modifies the erosive characteristics of the substrate …

In addition to their being vital components of mid-to high-latitude coastal ecosystems, salt
marshes contain 0.1% of global sequestered terrestrial carbon. Their sustainability is now …

Salt marsh losses have been documented worldwide because of land use change, wave
erosion, and sea-level rise. It is still unclear how resistant salt marshes are to extreme storms …

More than 2 y have passed since the BP–Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico,
yet we still have little understanding of its ecological impacts. Examining effects of this oil …

With sea level rise accelerating and sediment inputs to the coast declining worldwide, there
is concern that tidal wetlands will drown. To better understand this concern, sources of …

Keystone species have large ecological effects relative to their abundance and have been
identified in many ecosystems. However, global change is pervasively altering …

Early comparisons between rates of vertical accretion and sea level rise across marshes in
different tidal ranges inspired a paradigm that marshes in high tidal range environments are …

Tidal network morphodynamics is an active field of research and advances achieved over
the last decade, particularly with respect to laboratory experiments and numerical modelling …

In shallow coastal settings channels provide a pathway for the tide to propagate and are,
thus, a primary control on the sedimentation and ecology of these environments. Being …

Coastal managers worldwide increasingly recognize the importance of conservation and
restoration of natural coastal ecosystems. This ensures coastal resilience and provision of …
