| description:
|
Over the past 200 years, Rhode Island has lost over 50 percent of its salt marshes to man-made alterations resulting in a loss of approximately 4,000 acres statewide. <p>
To preserve wetlands against threats from accelerating sea level rise and increasing development, it is important to identify critical areas to target for protection, policy, and restoration. Maps that depict current and potential scenarios of Rhode Island’s coastal wetlands will provide a foundation for understanding the options, developing policy and guidelines, and training local and state decision makers alike.
