Collection: Living Shorelines
This collection features living shorelines work completed by project teams from 2015-2019. The collection includes a detailed management brief narrative, an infographic showing different shoreline stabilization strategies and how they vary across locations in order to suit the conditions present, and a webinar recording from a panel discussion on April 11, 2019.

Living Shorelines Project Video: Installing Gabion-Breaks in the Florida Intercoastal Waterway

This video describes a 2015 Collaborative Research project at the Guana Tolomato Matanzas Reserve where researchers installed a new living shoreline design to protect shorelines from boat wakes.

Report |
Salt Marshes in the Southeast Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment

This report summarizes the findings of a 2016 Science Transfer project that assessed the vulnerabilities of intertidal marsh sites in North and South Carolina.

Journal Article |
Mitigating Erosional Effects Induced by Boat Wakes with Living Shorelines

This article, published in Sustainability in 2018, characterizes the boat wake climate in Florida's Intracoastal Waterway, assesses the area's bathymetry, and anticipates the effects of experimental living shorelines (natural breakwall and oyster restoration structures) on facilitating sediment deposition and slowing vegetation retreat.

NECAP Community Risk Assessments

These risk assessments detail how climate could change in four New England municipalities over the 21st century, outlining each town's key climate change risks and potential adaptation options to address these risks. These assessments were produced as part of a 2012 Collaborative Research project.
