How effective are tidal marshes as nature‐based shoreline protection throughout seasons?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Limnology and Oceanography"
DOI: 10.1002/lno.11149
Abstract: Nature‐based mitigation is increasingly proposed as a strategy to cope with global change and related risks for coastal flooding and erosion. Tidal marshes are known to provide shoreline protection as their aboveground biomass attenuates waves… read more here.

Communicating (nature‐based) flood‐mitigation schemes using flood‐excess volume
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "River Research and Applications"
DOI: 10.1002/rra.3507
Abstract: As interest mounts in nature‐based solutions (NBS) for flood mitigation as complementary options to civil‐engineering measures, possible flood‐protection strategies have become more diverse and hence complicated to assess. We offer a straightforward and educational protocol… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00267-022-01613-y
Abstract: Compared to technical infrastructure, nature-based solutions, NBS, strive to work with nature and to move beyond business-as-usual practices in order to address societal challenges such as flood risks. This research aims to spatially identify possible… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10584-019-02557-9
Abstract: Scholars and practitioners are increasingly promoting so-called nature-based approaches for urban climate change adaptation. There is widespread consensus that they both support and require transdisciplinary approaches, notably by involving citizens in the change process and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s40710-019-00420-8
Abstract: The conventional urban stormwater management practices focus on carrying away runoff quickly by lined conveyors, which increase the surface runoff and reduce the time of concentration, subsequently causing floods in downstream areas. Ecological Management Practices… read more here.
