Tidal Marsh Restoration - A Synthesis of Science and Management

Informationen zum Autor Charles T. Roman is a coastal ecologist with the US National Park Service and professor-in-residence at the University of Rhode Island Graduate School of Oceanography. David M. Burdick is Research Associate Professor of Coastal Ecology and Restoration in the Department of Natural Resources and the Environment at the University of New Hampshire. Klappentext Tidal Marsh Restoration provides the scientific foundation and practical guidance necessary for coastal zone stewards to initiate salt marsh tidal restoration programs. The book compiles, synthesizes, and interprets the current state of knowledge on the science and practice of salt marsh restoration, bringing together leaders across a range of disciplines in the sciences (hydrology, soils, vegetation, zoology), engineering (hydraulics, modeling), and public policy, with coastal managers who offer an abundance of practical insight and guidance on the development of programs. The book is an essential work for managers, planners, regulators, environmental and engineering consultants, and others engaged in planning, designing, and implementing projects or programs aimed at restoring tidal flow to tide-restricted or diked salt marshes. Zusammenfassung Provides the scientific foundation and guidance necessary for coastal zone stewards to initiate salt marsh tidal restoration programmes. This book is suitable for managers! planners! regulators! and others engaged in planning! designing! and implementing projects or programmes aimed at restoring tidal flow to tide-restricted or diked salt marshes.
