Effects of Sea Level Rise on New England Salt Marshes: A Workshop Led by the New England Research Reserves - NERRS/NSC(NERRS Science Collaborative)

To build capacity for addressing salt marsh resilience, the Narragansett Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, in collaboration with the three other New England reserves, hosted a regional workshop in Portsmouth, New Hampshire on April 26, 2018 for researchers, practitioners, and policy makers to discuss the growing body of literature on salt marshes and sea level rise. Building upon the success of a similar workshop held in Rhode Island in 2014, the project further strengthened the connections among the New England reserves through cross-reserve exchange, and provided an important information-sharing opportunity for the larger salt marsh restoration and adaptation community. This science transfer project was funded by NOAA through the National Estuarine Research Reserve System Science Collaborative to promote the use of science. It did not produce any new data.
