Predicting the fate of shallow coastal ecosystems for the year 2100

A new study of shallow-water ecosystems estimates that, by 2100, climate change and coastal land usage could result in significant shrinkage of coral habitats, tidal marshes, and mangroves, while macroalgal beds remain stable and seagrass meadows potentially expand. Hirotada Moki of the Port and Airport Research Institute, Japan, and colleagues present their findings in the open-access journal PLOS Climate.

However, the degree to which they were essential varies between SCHs. SCH users have sufficient capital assets (financial, natural, human, social, and physical) to use the facilities.
