Elevated CO₂ Enhances Biological Contributions to Elevation Change in Coastal Wetlands by Offsetting Stressors Associated with Sea-Level Rise

1. Sea-level rise, one indirect consequence of increasing atmospheric CO₂, poses a major challenge to long-term stability of coastal wetlands. An important question is whether direct effects of elevated CO₂ on the capacity of marsh plants to accrete organic material and to maintain surface elevation...
