This 2022 paper which appeared in Nature discusses a modeling approach to examine the marsh’s buffering capacity in a changing climate (from 2020 to 2100), considering a potential marsh restoration plan (from 2020 to 2025) and potential marsh loss due to sea-level rise.
This resource contains the presenter slides, Q&A responses, recording, and presenter bios from the February 2022 webinar, Fostering Partnerships, the Foundation of Collaborative Science.
This 2021 paper from the University of South Florida discusses how machine learning was used to map aquifers throughout the Kenai Lowlands to locate groundwater discharge, providing a framework to extend this method of modeling groundwater to other reserves.
This resource contains the presenter slides, Q&A responses, recording, and presenter bios from the December 2021 webinar Evaluating the Impact of Hydrologic Alterations on Salt Marsh Sustainability in a Changing Climate.
This resource contains the presenter slides, Q&A responses, recording, and presenter bios from the November 2021 webinar Collaborative Research to Manage Stormwater Impacts on Coastal Reserves.
This tool provides an overview of acoustic monitoring in aquatic ecosystems, including sources of sound, metrics for measurement, data collection and analysis, and applications for habitat assessment, stewardship, and education.
This factsheet, developed by a 2020 catalyst project, provides a brief overview of CES frameworks and categories to complement the information contained in the factsheet “Expanding and Deepening the Application of Cultural Ecosystem Services in Estuary Stewardship and Management”.
This factsheet, developed by a 2021 catalyst project, summarizes information to strengthen the conceptual foundation and meaningful application of cultural ecosystem services (CES) in the NERRS.
This factsheet, developed as part of a 2020 catalyst project, consolidates case studies of applied CES assessments.
This factsheet, written as a resource for a three-year Collaborative Research project, describes measures and proposed management plans for marsh resilience to create a long-term monitoring programs and national-level synthesis efforts.
This resource contains the presenter slides, Q&A responses, recording, and presenter bios from the September 2021 webinar Improved Understanding of Sediment Dynamics for the Coos Estuary.
This resource contains the presenter slides, Q&A responses, recording, and presenter bios from the July 2021 webinar Collaborative Science Conversations: Designing Science for Coastal and Ocean Decision Making.
This 2021 article which appeared in Ecological Engineering explores the potential for large-scale breakwaters to preserve fringing marsh vegetation in high wave energy environments.
This resource contains the presenter slides, Q&A responses, recording, and presenter bios from the June 2021 webinar Margaret A. Davidson Graduate Fellowship: A Collaborative Graduate Fellowship to Address Coastal Challenges.
This story map explores how boat wakes affect coastal vulnerability in small estuary channels in Florida's Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway.
This web resources includes a compilation of lesson plans for grades K - 12 about coastal and estuarine ecology that are intended to complement programs that involve schools in local wetland restoration projects.
This resource contains the presenter slides, Q&A responses, recording, and presenter bios from the May 2021 webinar Can Oyster Aquaculture Help Restore Coastal Water Quality?
This 2021 article which appeared in Estuaries and Coasts provides a synthesis of native oyster restoration projects conducted from California, USA, to British Columbia, Canada.
This 2021 article which appeared in Ecology and Society describes a research project exploring how alders, peatlands, and groundwater flows were incorporated into a spatial tool that was used in case studies with user groups and in outreach efforts. The paper includes evidence that these efforts to engage with stakeholders are resulting in attitudinal shifts as well as on-the-ground changes in peoples’ decision-making.
