This book offers an in-depth look at oil and gas impacts on near shore coastal wetland environments plus a 'road map' for addressing these impacts through coastal restoration measures. Although the book focuses on the MRD, some of the restoration measures could be applied to other coastal river delta wetland ecosystems with similar impacts.
