Description
This award provides for assistance to use the field data being collected by the USGS in process based numerical coastal wetland simulation models similar to those described in “Morris, J.T., Sundareshwar, P.V., Nietch, C.T., Kjerfve, B., Cahoon, D.R., 2002. Responses of coastal wetlands to rising sea level. Ecology 83, 2869-2877” to model the ecological sustainability of these marshes in the face of sea-level rise.
