The Role of Vegetated Coastal Wetlands for Marine Megafauna Conservation

Marine megafauna and vegetated coastal wetland habitats (seagrasses, saltmarshes, and mangroves) are under intense threat and declining globally. Emerging research and novel methodologies have unveiled important, previously unknown habitat associations between marine megafauna and these habitats. Unless we can conceptualize and critically examine these habitat associations, management and conservation can be undermined. Identifying threatened...
