Seventeen projects involving 27 reserves across the nation and totaling more than $2 million have been recommended for support by NOAA’s National Estuarine Research Reserve System (NERRS) Science Collaborative.

Thin-layer sediment placement (TLP) is a promising management tool for enhancing tidal marsh resilience to rising seas.

This five-minute video shows the January 5, 2023 flooding on North San Pedro Road in China Camp State Park, San Rafael California during an atmospheric river event. The road also floods during winter king tides that raise water levels in San Francisco Bay.

The ability to quickly communicate local environmental changes in the aftermath of hurricanes helps impacted communities better understand storm events and support recovery.

This instructional and informational webinar features background information on the 2020 science transfer Storm Stories project, how end-user feedback was incorporated, the tools and products that have been developed through the project, and how reserves can access resources.

Thin-layer placement (TLP) is an emergent climate adaptation strategy that mimics natural deposition processes in tidal marshes by adding a small amount of sediment on top of marsh in order to maintain elevation relative to sea level rise.
