Estuaries are identified as critical points where invasive marine species can move inland, increasing ecological vulnerability. Invasive marine species can reduce biodiversity and alter ecosystem functions, affecting coastal resilience and resources. #WetTribe #TideotheOcean

Estuaries link land and sea, but rising seas could enable over 100 non-native marine species to colonize newly flooded coastal areas by midcentury. #WetTribe #TideotheOcean #Research #FridayFieldUpdate #Estuaries #SeaRise #InvasiveSpecies
