A NEW APPROACH ACCOUNTING FOR SPECIES-SPECIFIC PLANT CHARACTERISTICS ON SAND CAPTURE EFFICIENCY IN AN AEOLIAN TRANSPORT MODEL Open
Coastal dunes are natural landforms that develop in the backshore of sandy coastlines through complex ecomorphodynamic interactions (Hesp, 2002). They provide a wide range of ecosystem services (Barbier et al., 2011) but are threatened by …

COASTAL ENGINEERING WITH NATURE AT THE INTERFACE BEWTEEN BEST AVAILABLE SCIENCE, ENGINEERING, MANAGEMENT, AND COMMUNITY NEED Open
On the U.S. Pacific Northwest (PNW) outer coast, there are both naturally occurring dune backed beaches and cliff backed cobble beaches that have inspired nature- based engineering strategies for erosion control (i.e., sandy and vegetated …

Quantifying the Relative Importance of Sand Deposition and Dune Grasses to Carbon Storage in US Central Atlantic Coast Dunes Open
Coastal ecosystems such as mangroves, salt marshes, and seagrasses sequester large amounts of carbon per unit area due to their high productivity and sediment accumulation rates. However, only a handful of studies have examined carbon sequ…

Quantifying the sand capture efficiency of native and non-native dune plants with an in-situ experiment and numerical modeling during wind gust conditions. Open
Coastal dunes are natural landforms formed by complex positive feedbacks between wind driven sediment transport processes, the presence of vegetation, and existing dune morphology. To improve our knowledge of the sand capture efficiency of…

Eelgrass and Macroalgae Loss in an Oregon Estuary: Consequences for Ocean Acidification and Hypoxia Open
Estuarine macrophytes are proposed to influence ocean acidification and hypoxia (OAH) via the uptake (release) of inorganic carbon (oxygen) during photosynthesis. The extent to which macrophytes mitigate OAH in estuaries depends on the int…

Sand supply and dune grass species density affect foredune shape along the <span>US</span> Central Atlantic Coast Open
Coastal foredunes form via biophysical feedbacks between sand accretion and burial‐tolerant vegetation and can protect coastlines from hazards such as extreme storms and sea level rise. Predicting how coastal dunes, and the services they p…

Differential Responses of Eelgrass and Macroalgae in Pacific Northwest Estuaries Following an Unprecedented NE Pacific Ocean Marine Heatwave Open
The 2013-2016 northeast Pacific Ocean marine heatwave (MHW) had myriad impacts on marine communities, but little is known about how this event affected coastal estuaries. We examined the extent to which elevated temperatures associated wit…

The relative influence of dune aspect ratio and beach width on dune erosion as a function of storm duration and surge level Open
Dune height is an important predictor of impact during a storm event given that taller dunes have a lower likelihood of being overtopped than shorter dunes. However, the temporal dominance of the wave collision regime, wherein volume loss …

The relative role of constructive and destructive processes in dune evolution on Cape Lookout National Seashore, North Carolina, USA Open
Coastal dunes are dynamic features that are continuously evolving due to constructive (e.g., wind‐ and wave‐driven sediment transport) and destructive (e.g., elevated total water levels during storm events) processes. However, the relative…

Climate Change Alters The Interaction of Two Invasive Beachgrasses With Implications For Range Shifts And Coastal Dune Functions Open
Forecasting the effects of climate change on the distribution of invasive species can be difficult because invaders often thrive under novel physical conditions and biotic interactions that differ from those in their native range. In this …
