This series of case studies highlights ecologically-enhanced shoreline projects owned and designed by a variety of organizations in the Hudson River estuary.

This handbook, the result of a 2010 Collaborative Research project, offers suggestions for practical ways that landowners and land managers can protect shore zones and increase the benefits they provide.

This project overview describes a 2010 Collaborative Research project that advanced understanding of the economic, ecological, and engineering tradeoffs associated with different shoreline management options on New York's Hudson River.

Oysters are the tiny superheroes of coastal environments. They enhance water quality, create habitat, and protect shorelines from storms and erosion. Along the Pacific Coast, native oysters are in decline, due in part to sedimentation, inadequate protection, and unsustainable harvests.

This article, which appeared in Global Change Biology, discusses findings from a study that quantified total ecosystem carbon stocks of major tidal wetland types in the Pacific Northwest.

This 2014 article, published in Environmental Management, examines three competitively funded project case studies to determine what funders can and should do to better link science with decisions.

This project overview describes a 2010 Collaborative Research project that assessed changes in land and sea level and monitored the impacts of climate change on Kachemak Bay's biological communities.

This article, published in Estuaries and Coasts in 2013, describes three case studies involving new tools and science to help land use planners better protect coastal resources.

This chapter appears in the 2011 publication Restoring Lands - Coordinating Science, Politics and Action. The purpose of the chapter is to discuss, in detail, the mechanisms for making connections between science and action, with an eye toward lessons learned.

This 2011 journal article, published in Coastal Management, analyzed survey, interview, and progress report data to determine if and why the science generated by funded projects was being applied to mitigate coastal management issues.
