Living Shorelines: The Science and Management of Nature-based Coastal Protection compiles, synthesizes and interprets the current state of the knowledge on the science and practice of nature-based shoreline protection. This book will serve as a valuable reference to guide scientists, students, managers, planners, regulators, environmental and engineering consultants, and others engaged in the design and implementation of living shorelines. This volume provides a background and history of living shorelines, understandings on management, policy, and project designs, technical synthesis of the science related to living shorelines including insights from new studies, and the identification of research needs, lessons learned, and perspectives on future guidance. Makes recommendations on the correct usage of the term living shorelines Offers guidance for shoreline management in the future Includes lessons learned from the practice of shoreline restoration/conservation Synthesizes regional perspectives to identify strategies for the successful design and implementation of living shorelines Reviews specific design criteria for successful implementation of living shorelines Provides detailed discussions of social, regulatory, scientific and technical considerations to justify and design living shoreline projects International perspectives are presented from leading researchers and managers in the East, West and Gulf coasts of the United States, Europe, Canada, and Australia that are working on natural approaches to shoreline management. The broad geographic scope and interdisciplinary nature of contributing authors will help to facilitate dialogue and transfer knowledge among different disciplines and across different regions. This book provides coastal communities with the scientific foundation and practical guidance necessary to implement effective shoreline management that enhances ecosystem services and coastal resilience now and into the future.

Download Improving Coastal Management Through Integrating Social-Ecological Assessments Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Societies and ecosystems are interlinked entities as there are feedbacks and dependencies between the systems and these can be viewed as an integrated, social-ecological system. Social and ecological research is often conducted independently which contributes to management recommendations that are premised on a false dichotomy. Compounding these challenges, climate change is accelerating and continues to exacerbate socio-ecological stressors. Coastal wetlands, such as salt marshes, are particularly vulnerable to sea level rise and coastal development. Shoreline erosion is often managed through installing engineered shoreline armoring (i.e., bulkhead) that reduces many of the natural adaptive mechanisms present in coastal ecosystems. In contrast, natural and nature-based features (e.g., living shorelines) can protect coastal properties from storm damage and reduce erosion while potentially adapting to new conditions. The goal of this dissertation is to integrate social and ecological assessments of shoreline systems to improve coastal management, with different chapters addressing different elements of the shoreline social-ecological system (Figure 1). Chapter 2 includes a comprehensive comparison of nekton habitat use at living shorelines and natural marshes over a range of living shoreline age and environmental settings. It shows that living shorelines provide similarly suitable nekton habitat as natural marshes. Chapter 3 examines property owner perceptions of shoreline modifications and how they relate to their decision making. This chapter reveals that property owners often perceive riprap to be more effective than living shorelines at erosion control, withstanding storms, and adapting to sea level rise. Although the ecological benefits of living shorelines are often recognized, these benefits are not often factored into property owner shoreline decision making. Chapter 4 evaluates how social interactions affect property owner decision making and simulates how these social groups can affect tidal marsh sustainability. This work shows that NGOs, state employees, and friends are often influential for living shoreline property owners which indicates a greater need for NGOs and state employees to engage in local communities. Yet, even under accelerated rates of living shoreline implementation by individual property owners, the modification rates may be to be too slow to meaningfully offset anticipated marsh loss from shoreline development and sea level rise. Chapter 5 uses a social-ecological network analysis to evaluate how ecosystem services are considered in shoreline policy and during decision making. Ecosystem services are used as a bridge between the social and ecological components. Results show that marsh structures that contribute to the desired ecosystem services are not explicitly considered in polices or during decision making. There is a need to reevaluate the underlying assumptions of coastal policies. This dissertation affirms that living shorelines provide necessary ecosystem services, such as nekton habitat, but these benefits are not realized by property owners. The piecemeal and property owner-driven approach of shoreline modification for stabilization is currently ineffective in protecting salt marsh habitat. This indicates there is a need for a more comprehensive shoreline management approach that accounts for regional spatial scales and incorporates the underlying functions of a marsh that create many socially desired benefits.
