Effects Of Climate Change On Tidal Marshes Along A Latitudinal Gradient In California, Usgs Jan 2016

Effects Of Climate Change On Tidal Marshes Along A Latitudinal Gradient In California, Usgs

State & Federal Reports and Publications

This report contains compiled physical and biological data, including coastal topography, tidal inundation, plant composition, and sediment accretion to project how SLR may alter these ecosystems in the future. The goal of our research was to provide results that support coastal management and conservation efforts across California.


Assessing Coastal Manager Science Needs And Disseminating Science Results For Planning, Usgs Jan 2016

Assessing Coastal Manager Science Needs And Disseminating Science Results For Planning, Usgs

State & Federal Reports and Publications

To facilitate communication and outreach of sea-level tidal marsh modeling results, we convened managers, biologists, Tribes, and other important decision makers and partners and hosted in-person workshops with stakeholders in six Pacific coast estuaries. Our objectives were: (1) disseminate site-specific baseline data and modeling results, reveal coast-wide trends, and identify data gaps; (2) identify how local climate science results may be incorporated into habitat conservation, planning, and adaptation strategies; and (3) develop an understanding of coastal climate change science needs to inform the California and North Pacific Landscape Conservation Cooperatives.
