Coastal marshes provide valuable protection for coastal communities from storm-induced wave, flood, and structural loss in a changing climate

This 2022 paper which appeared in Nature discusses a modeling approach to examine the marsh ’s buffering capacity in a changing climate (from 2020 to 2100), considering a potential marsh restoration plan (from 2020 to 2025) and potential marsh loss due to sea-level rise.
