| description:
|
Recovery of lost embayments was specifically identified by Fresh et al. (2010) and in PSNERP planning objectives. Therefore, we mapped and developed some attributes for discrete lost barrier embayments (i.e. where embayment shoreline length had been reduced to zero). We propose that in addition to historic embayment shoreline length and wetland area, that the continuity of embayment service provides benefits to mobile species dependant on the connectivity between embayment sites. Where loss of an embayment creates a larger gap in the continuity of embayment services, therefore the relative benefit derived from restoration would be greater than if the gap created were smaller. To describe this rarity we calculated the distance from each lost embayment to the nearest existing embayments to describe the potential for restoration to fill a gap in embayment services. |
