About this resource

Degradation of coastal habitats has led to major declines in oyster reefs and coastal wetlands. Coastal restoration efforts are critical to restoring these habitats, but they often include little to no monitoring and evaluation of success.

Tool |

This step-by-step tutorial demonstrates how to do a shoreline erosion assessment using common software.
