A review of coastal management approaches to support the integration of ecological and human community planning for climate change A review of coastal management approaches to support the integration of ecological and human community planning for climate change
The resilience of socio-ecological systems to sea level rise, storms and flooding can be enhanced when coastal habitats are used as natural infrastructure. Grey infrastructure has long been used for coastal flood protection but can lead to unintended negative impacts. Natural infrastructure often provides similar services as well as added benefits that support short- and long-term...

Ecological and management implications of climate change induced shifts in phenology of coastal fish and wildlife species in the Northeast CASC region Ecological and management implications of climate change induced shifts in phenology of coastal fish and wildlife species in the Northeast CASC region
Climate change is causing species to shift their phenology, or the timing of recurring life events such as migration and reproduction, in variable and complex ways. This can potentially result in mismatches or asynchronies in food and habitat resources that negatively impact individual fitness, population dynamics, and ecosystem function. Numerous studies have evaluated phenological...

Ecosystems, Ecosystem Services, and Biodiversity Ecosystems, Ecosystem Services, and Biodiversity
Biodiversity—the variety of life on Earth—provides vital services that support and improve human health and well-being. Ecosystems, which are composed of living things that interact with the physical environment, provide numerous essential benefits to people. These benefits, termed ecosystem services, encompass four primary functions: provisioning materials, such as food and fiber...

Final Report fr critical thresholds and ecosystem services for coastal ecological and human climate adaptation Final Report fr critical thresholds and ecosystem services for coastal ecological and human climate adaptation
Understanding how climate change will impact natural and human communities is a crucial part of decision making and management related to the protection of our coasts. As the effects of climate change on ecological communities grow, the possibility of crossing tipping points or thresholds of viability increases the potential for rapid and possibly irreversible changes in ecosystems...

A synthesis of thresholds for focal species along the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf Coasts: A review of research and applications A synthesis of thresholds for focal species along the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf Coasts: A review of research and applications
The impacts from climate change are increasing the possibility of vulnerable coastal species and habitats crossing critical thresholds that could spur rapid and possibly irreversible changes. For species of high conservation concern, improved knowledge of quantitative thresholds could greatly improve management. To meet this need, we synthesized information pertaining to biological...
