Tidal Flat Erosion Supports Salt Marsh Accretion in a Back-Barrier Bay
COASTAL GEOMORPHOLOGY AND MORPHODYNAMICS V ELIGHTNING
earth and planetary surface processes | 11 december 2024
Tyler Barnes, Patricia Wiberg
Coastal wetlands must gain elevation at rates comparable to relative sea level rise (RSLR) to avoid salt marsh drowning. Vertical marsh accretion is r...

JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH: BIOGEOSCIENCES
02 april 2024
Qingguang Zhu, Patricia Wiberg
Both submerged aquatic vegetation and salt marsh are important coastal ecosystems known for their effectiveness in sediment trapping and carbon bur...
Interannual and Spatial Variability of Deposition within a Vegetated Shallow Coastal Bay
REMOTE SENSING OF NEARSHORE PHYSICAL PROCESSES AND COASTAL MORPHOLOGY III POSTER
ocean technologies and observatories | 22 february 2024
Tyler Barnes, Patricia Wiberg
Sea level rise is a major driver of change within shallow coastal bays, resulting in deeper water depths unless bay bottoms accumulate sediment at rat...

The Importance of Storm Surge for Sediment Delivery to Microtidal Marshes
JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH: EARTH SURFACE
02 september 2022
Qingguang Zhu, Patricia Wiberg
Storm surge has the potential to significantly increase suspended sediment flux to microtidal marshes. However, the overall effects of storm surge ...
