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.

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.
