Answer:
Protect an existing vegetative buffer or plant a new vegetative buffer along the salt marsh to filter runoff and reduce erosion. If you have erosion, consider a living shoreline such as marsh grass or an oyster reef instead of a bulkhead or riprap.
Answer:
As salt marshes are reinterpreted, their ecosystem services become better understood. This results in an increase of conservation efforts to the tune of 1 billion US$ worldwide. Efforts include proper management of existing marshes, introduction of legislation to protect ecologically important habitats, reduction of intense development along the coast, and restoration of damaged marshes.
