Wetlands along the Gulf Coast are crucial for reducing hurricane-induced flooding and as habitat for diverse wildlife, but are threatened by rising sea levels, climate change, and coastal development. Using remote sensing data, future climate data, and numerical models, researchers from this South Central CASC-supported project will collaborate with local expert groups to create data and maps about the future of coastal wetlands. The findings will help wetland management and flood control agencies improve strategies for enhancing wetland restoration efforts and improving flood protection for communities in the region. Coastal wetlands are important ecosystems along the Gulf Coast that provide essential services...
