Publisher's Synopsis
Wetlands on the Edge: The Future of Southern California's Wetlands, Regional Strategy 2018, is a comprehensive guide for the recovery and long-term survival of Southern California's wetlands. In this report, over 50 scientists and resource managers analyze how our wetlands have changed, their future potential and threats, and how we can ensure their health into the future. The Regional Strategy was developed through a four-year process. This strategy provides quantitative objectives for wetlands recovery that are based on our understanding of historical wetland location and area, current stressors on wetland ecosystems, such as development, and the future threat that is posed by sea-level rise and climate change.
