Journal Article
Li, T., Wu, P., Wang, H., Steffen, H., Khan, N., Engelhart, S., …Horton, B. (2020). Uncertainties of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment Model Predictions in North America associated with 3D structure. Geophysical Research Letters, 47(10), Article e2020GL087944. https://doi.org/10.1029/2020gl087944

We quantify GIA prediction uncertainties of 250 1D and 3D glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) models through comparisons with deglacial relative sea‐level (RSL) data from North America and rate of vertical land motion ( urn:x-wiley:00948276:media:grl6...

Estimating global mean sea-level rise and its uncertainties by 2100 and 2300 from an expert survey (2020)
Journal Article
Horton, B., Khan, N., Cahill, N., Lee, J., Shaw, T., Garner, A., …Rahmstorf, S. (2020). Estimating global mean sea-level rise and its uncertainties by 2100 and 2300 from an expert survey. npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 3, Article 18. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41612-020-0121-5

Sea-level rise projections and knowledge of their uncertainties are vital to make informed mitigation and adaptation decisions. To elicit projections from members of the scientific community regarding future global mean sea-level (GMSL) rise, we repe...

Geospatial modeling suggests threats from stormy seas to Rhode Island's coastal septic systems (2020)
Journal Article
Cox, A., Dowling, M., Loomis, G., Engelhart, S., & Amador, J. (2020). Geospatial modeling suggests threats from stormy seas to Rhode Island's coastal septic systems. Journal of sustainable water in the built environment, 6(3), Article 04020012. https://doi.org/10.1061/jswbay.0000917

Coastal communities preparing for climate change and sea-level rise need to consider the impact large storms will have on belowground infrastructure. Although these communities often rely on on-site wastewater treatment systems (OWTSs) to treat waste...

Salt-marsh foraminiferal distributions from mainland northern Georgia, USA: an assessment of their viability for sea-level studies (2020)
Journal Article
Chen, H., Shaw, T., Wang, J., Engelhart, S., Nikitina, D., Pilarczyk, J., …Horton, B. (2020). Salt-marsh foraminiferal distributions from mainland northern Georgia, USA: an assessment of their viability for sea-level studies. Open Quaternary, 6(1), 1-19. https://doi.org/10.5334/oq.80

We investigated foraminiferal distributions from two salt-marsh sites at Thunderbolt and Georgetown, in mainland northern Georgia, U.S. Atlantic coast. We analyzed modern epifaunal foraminiferal assemblages across multiple transects consisting of 54...

Organic Pollutants, Heavy Metals and Toxicity in Oil Spill impacted Salt Marsh Sediment Cores, Staten Island, New York City, USA (2020)
Journal Article
Vane, C., Kim, A., Moss-Hayes, V., Turner, G., Mills, K., Chenery, S., …Brain, M. (2020). Organic Pollutants, Heavy Metals and Toxicity in Oil Spill impacted Salt Marsh Sediment Cores, Staten Island, New York City, USA. Marine Pollution Bulletin, 151, Article 110721. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2019.110721

Sediment cores from Staten Island's salt marsh contain multiple historical oil spill events that impact ecological health. Microtox solid phase bioassay indicated moderate to high toxicity. Multiple spikes of TPH (6524 to 9586 mg/kg) and Σ16 PAH (15....
