About the project

A 2021 - 2024 collaborative research project is conducting a national-scale synthesis of NERRS geographic diversity to measure the influences of climate change on marsh resilience. The project is utilizing the tidal marsh-monitoring tools and building upon the results of two catalyst projects analyzing marsh vegetation and surface elevation.

To best inform marsh-management practices and national-level synthesis efforts, the project will establish collaborative partnerships between the research team and involved stakeholders.
