  abstract: The western Louisiana and Texas coast is vulnerable to sea-level rise due to low gradients, high subsidence and depleted sediment supply. This Memoir describes the response of coastal environments to variable rates of sea-level rise and sediment supply during Holocene to modern time. This volume is a wake-up call about the potential magnitude of coastal change over decadal to centennial time scales.
