dc.description.abstract	Climate change is generating a broad range of negative impacts worldwide, particularly on marine and coastal ecosystems (MCE) (IPCC-SROCC, 2019 and IPBES-IPCC, 2021). These impacts include coastal flooding and erosion, sea-level rise and storm surges. To adapt to these adverse effects and improve the well-being of coastal communities, engineered approaches have traditionally been used; however, there is growing recognition of the potential of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) to address these impacts while enhancing biodiversity (Baustian et al., 2020 and Chausson et al., 2020). NbS are actions that aim to address societal challenges and provide socialecological benefits by harnessing ecological processes (Cohen-Shacham et al., 2016). They have the potential to support climate change adaptation, for example, through storm surge attenuation, wave height reduction and flood protection; thus, enhancing ecosystem resilience and the provision of ecosystem services (i.e., improved fish stocks, biodiversity conservation, coastal tourism and recreation) (Chausson et al., 2020; Seddon et al., 2020; UNEP, 2021).
