Salt marsh booklet released by Gulf of Maine Council

Today the Gulf of Maine Council on the Marine Environment released a 42-page booklet that I wrote under contract with the Science Translation Project in collaboration with 2 Council subcommittees. The booklet is called Salt Marshes in the Gulf of Maine: Human Impacts, Habitat Restoration, and Long-term Change Analysis. You can download a PDF or request a hard copy at www.gulfofmaine.org/saltmarsh. It’s a beautifully designed, full-color, glossy document with lots of photos and illustrations. The booklet is intended as a useful tool for resource managers, lawmakers, non-governmental organizations, educators, and others interested in understanding salt marshes as a key element of the Gulf of Maine ecosystem.
