Summary

As the world slowly warms and sea levels rise, there are questions about what this means for mangroves and wetlands. Neil Saintilan is a world leading earth scientist whose research has changed our understanding of how coastal wetlands work and respond to rising sea-levels. He's recently been recognised for his work in this space, winning the Australian Academy of Science's Mawson Medal.
