Nature-based mitigation of shoreline erosion risks in restored and created tidal marshes

Tidal marshes provide many valuable ecosystem services and can play an important role in nature-based flood risk mitigation along low-lying coasts and estuaries, by attenuating waves and increasing erosion resistance. It was previously shown that interacting physical and ecological factors drive the development rate of erosion resistance in tidal marshes. Despite a global effort to restore or create tidal marshes, it remains unknown how different marsh restoration and creation techniques affect the development of erosion resistant sediment beds, which is essential for coastal managers to provide a long-term contribution to flood risk mitigation.

Abstract

Tidal marshes provide many valuable ecosystem services and can play an important role in nature-based flood risk mitigation along low-lying coasts and estuaries, by attenuating waves and increasing erosion resistance. It was previously shown that interacting physical and ecological factors drive the development rate of erosion resistance in tidal marshes. Despite a global effort to restore or create tidal marshes, it remains unknown how different marsh restoration and creation techniques affect the development of erosion resistant sediment beds, which is essential for coastal managers to provide a long-term contribution to flood risk mitigation.
