Abstract: The project will investigate how the dynamic estuarine systems of Southern California will be affected (physically and biologically) by sea level rise and will determine how and where nature-based solutions can be used to provide resilience to those effects. First, the project will integrate existing sea level rise and habitat evolution models to understand how the physical and habitat-level changes will occur with rising tides and associated storm events. The project will then develop various conceptual models of changing estuarine inlet dynamics to refine model outputs.
