|a We assessed the role of coastal habitats in reducing the relative vulnerability of 23 people and property to erosion and flooding from storms and five sea-level rise (SLR) 24 scenarios in 1 km2 segments along the entire coast of the United States. We quantified 25 exposure to coastal hazards on a nationwide scale, and based our SLR scenarios on those 26 used in the 2013 National Climate Assessment24. We calculated a coastal hazard index 27 that incorporates seven physical and biological variables: shoreline type (which includes 28 geomorphology and physical structures), habitats, relief, SLR, wind exposure, wave 29 exposure, and surge potential (Supplementary Table 1)21. Five years (2006-2010) of the 30 US Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (ACS)22 data and Zillow’s Home 31 Value Index (ZHVI), which is the median market value of residential properties in each 32 U.S. 2010 Census block group23, allowed us to identify where habitats provide protection 33 for the most vulnerable people and highest value properties. |
