Abstract: The objectives for this transdisciplinary project are to: (1) refine, enhance, and extend the coupled dynamic, bio-geo-physical models of coastal morphology, tide, marsh, and surge; (2) advance the paradigm shift for SLR assessments by linking economic impact analysis and ecosystem services valuation directly to these coastal dynamics of SLR; (3) establish and engage a Management Transition Advisory Group (MTAG) throughout the entire project process; and (4) deliver our results via a flexible, multi-platform mechanism that allows for region-wide or place-based assessment of NNBFs. Through the completion of these objectives this project will address all three of the EELSR research priorities.
