Session Description:
Climate change in general and sea level rise (SLR) in particular have the potential to considerably impact the built and natural environment. Under SLR coastal resiliency is challenged; however, a comprehensive system of systems approach can offer a path forward. For example, the northern Gulf of Mexico coast sustains diverse habitats including marshes, submerged aquatic vegetation, and oyster reefs, which provide a suite of ecosystem services. Strategies to maintain or enhance the resiliency of a low gradient coastal landscape can be informed by the collaborative (i.e., scientists and stakeholders) development and application of resource management based tools. Such transdisciplinary efforts enable local stakeholders to conduct scenario assessments of nonlinear impacts of future conditions and adaptation actions. This session invites abstracts that examine impacts from the coastal dynamics of SLR via system of systems approaches that include integrated models of biological, geophysical, and socioeconomic processes.
