Project Objectives
Understand potential for coastal
wetland habitat conversion/loss
under multiple scenarios of SLR
Identify and assess
opportunities for and barriers to
marsh migration
Engage stakeholders to better incorporate wetlands
into adaptation strategies and planning efforts

Potential Salt Marsh Trends from 2011-2100
Cape Cod | Intermediate High SLR Scenario
• > 3500 ha increase in reg-flooded marsh
(low marsh zone), 225% ↑
• > 5500 ha decrease in irreg-flooded marsh
(high marsh zone), 87% ↓
• Total loss of approximately 2000 ha of salt
marsh, 25% ↓
• Marshes draining to Vineyard and Nantucket
Sounds are potentially more susceptible to
loss from SLR than those draining to Cape
Cod Bay (i.e., tidal range sensitivity). 100 Years of Estuarine Marsh Trends in
Massachusetts (1893 to 1995)

Next Steps
• Project website
– Final SLAMM report
– Overview and highlights
– Additional data analyses and summaries
• Esri Story Map and MORIS web tools
• Stakeholder meetings
• Long-term monitoring projects
