A century ago, measuring elevation in tidal wetlands proved difficult, as survey leveling of
soft marsh soils relative to a fixed datum was error prone. For 60 years, vertical accretion …

Salt marshes are important coastal environments that provide key ecological services. As
sea level rise has accelerated globally, concerns about the ability of salt marshes to survive …

Abstract In southern New England, salt marshes are exceptionally vulnerable to the impacts
of accelerated sea level rise. Regional rates of sea level rise have been as much as 50 …

Salt marsh habitat loss and conversion are well documented across the marine-coastal
district of New York. Regionally, these losses are characterized by marsh edge erosion …

The movement of salt marshes into uplands and marsh submergence as sea level rises is
well documented; however, predicting how coastal marshes will respond to rising sea levels …

Twenty years of surface elevation table and marker horizon monitoring at three sites along
the Fire Island (New York, USA) barrier island indicates that rates of marsh surface elevation …

Heightened recognition of impacts to coastal salt marshes from sea-level rise has led to
expanding interest in using thin-layer sediment placement (TLP) as an adaptation tool to …

Tidal wetlands are critical but highly threatened ecosystems that provide vital services.
Efficient stewardship of tidal wetlands requires robust comparative assessments of different …

Salt marshes are increasingly vulnerable to degradation and loss from accelerating sea-
level rise and other pervasive disturbances, spurring a need for broad, science-based …

In mid-winter 2018, an unprecedented sediment deposition event occurred throughout
portions of the Great Marsh in Massachusetts. Evaluation of this event in distinct marsh …
