DOI: 10.1007/s10021-020-00520-9
Abstract: Tidal marshes rank among the ecosystems with the highest capacity to sequester and store organic carbon (C org ) on earth. To inform conservation of coastal vegetated ecosystems for climate change mitigation, this study investigated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10236-020-01380-6
Abstract: This study presents a new approach to modeling marsh evolution. The Tidal Marsh Model (TMM) has been developed as a module within the SCHISM (Semi-implicit Cross-scale Hydroscience Integrated System Model) framework. Some unique features of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13157-020-01294-5
Abstract: Dredged materials from navigation channel maintenance represent a potentially valuable resource for wetland creation and restoration. In the northern Chesapeake Bay, fine-grained sediments from Baltimore Harbor approach channels are transported by barge southward for creation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13157-020-01387-1
Abstract: Tidal marshes are important ecological systems that are responding to sea level rise-driven changes in tidal regimes. Human development along the coastline creates barriers to marsh migration, moderating tidal marsh distributions. This study shows that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0209025
Abstract: Functional trait theory provides a mechanistic framework to understand change in community composition and community assembly through time and space. Despite this, trait-based approaches have seldom been used in ecological restoration. Succession theory predicts that… read more here.
