salt marsh by altering hydrology, salinity regimes and erosive forces. Southern New England salt marshes are among the most vulnerable in the country; a review and assessment of ecological response and resilience mechanisms of these important ecosystems is
timely and critical to their future. </span><span style="color:#333333"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
