Humans threaten wetlands' ability to keep pace with sea-level rise
Left to themselves, coastal wetlands can withstand rapid levels of 
sea-level rise. But humans could be sabotaging some of their best 
defenses, according to a Nature review paper published Thursday from 
from the Virginia Institute of Marine Science and the Smithsonian 
Environmental Research Center.

Sea level rise and shoreline changes are lead influences on floods 
from tropical cyclones
Writing in the current special issue of Nature dedicated to coastal 
regions, UMass Amherst geoscientist Woodruff, with co-authors 
Jennifer Irish of Virginia Tech University and Suzana Camargo of 
Columbia University, say, "Society must learn to live with a rapidly 
evolving shoreline that is increasingly prone to flooding from 
tropical cyclones."

destructive tropical storms may be overshadowing a more unrelenting 
threat to coastal property -- sea-level rise -- according to a team 
of researchers writing in the journal Nature this week.
