Abstract: Climate change poses both practical and theoretical problems for coastal managers, who have to make and implement plans that cope with a highly uncertain, and therefore inherently risky, future. This Perspective uses three examples of ecological engineering — marshes, mangroves, and oyster reefs — to illustrate the synergistic effects and benefits of this approach.
