This factsheet discusses the potential for gabion-breaks and other living shorelines to dissipate boat wakes and protect shorelines.

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.

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.

This manual describes methods employed by a 2015 Collaborative Research project team to dissipate wave energy along the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.

This webinar, which originally aired on December 12, 2013, discusses the Tijuana River Reserve's collaborative efforts to develop a vulnerability assessment that informs an adaptation strategy to address sea level rise and riverine flooding.

Southern California ’s coastal environments are under intense development pressure. In the Tijuana River Valley, this pressure translates into the fragmentation and loss of coastal wetlands that provide invaluable services, such as water quality protection.

This project overview describes a 2012 Collaborative Research project that developed a decision-making framework and tools to guide coastal wetland recovery and management in Southern California.

https://coast.noaa.gov/estuaries/curriculum/dont-shut-your-mouth.htmlThis lesson encourages students to make evidence-based conclusions about the impacts of development, pollution, and climate on the Los Penasquitos Lagoon in southern California.

This paper details findings presented at the U.S.-Iran Symposium on Wetlands in March 2016 about the increasing watershed influence and hypo-salinity in Los Penasquitos Lagoon.

This technical report analyzes the relationship between dissolved oxygen and mouth condition at the Los Penasquitos Lagoon in southern California.
