• Abstract:
  As a result of awareness of wetlands’ importance, community master plans define areas to develop and others to preserve; however, sensitive coastal ecosystems can still suffer impacts, directly, through physical disturbance, or indirectly, by excessive shade or impaired water quality. Restoring these areas and mitigating further damage are challenging because not enough is known about these complex environments to assure effective mitigation/restoration designs and because monitoring practices often take a broad view that does not help designers understand what worked and what didn’t.
