  • Coastal Wetlands

    An Integrated Ecosystem Approach

    Edited by Gerardo M.E. Perillo, Eric Wolanski, Donald R. Cahoon, Mark M. Brinson ...
    Coastal wetlands are under a great deal of pressure from the dual forces of rising sea level and the intervention of human populations both along the estuary and in the river catchment. Direct impacts include the destruction or degradation of wetlands from land reclamation and infrastructures. Indirect impacts derive from the discharge of pollutants, changes in river flows and sediment supplies, ... Read more
