Dr. Glenn Guntenspergen, research ecologist for the U.S. Geological Survey at the
Patuxent Wildlife Research Center will summarize our current understanding of the
relationship among climate change, sea-level rise and coastal wetland persistence.
The presentation will also review the role of simulation models in forecasting the
response of coastal wetlands to climate change and accelerated sea level rise and
how models can inform effective management practices.
