Storm-surge protection, increased water quality, nurseries for commercially important shellfish, and recreational opportunities are only some of the societal benefits contributed by coastal wildlife refuges. Faced with sea-level rise and climate change, the ability of coastal refuges to protect the nation\u2019s natural resources and provide ecosystem services is in jeopardy."

This collaboration integrates the expertise of specialists in global-change science, coastal dynamics, resource economics, and decision science to address management policies that will benefit both human and wildlife interests into the future. We use methods based on modern portfolio theory and robust optimization for identifying potential solutions while considering the risk attitude of managers and uncertainty associated with climate change and urbanization. The area of focus is Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge in South Carolina."
