Resumo: The interest on salt marsh recovery and habitat restoration started to be associated with rapid changes in erosion and accretion rates endangering the human communities that live in the borderline salt marsh (Boorman et al., 2002; Doody, 2013). Lowlying areas left by successive embankments and land reclamation over centuries fail in the absorption of wave energy and in the capacity to accommodate flooding. These aspects started to be valued in a context of climate change, particularly rising sea levels, and these concerns, in the first phase, have led to the construction of breakwater structures (Elliot et al., 2007; Doody, 2013). Nevertheless, these hard measures started to degrade and sustainability issues arose whenever breakwaters and groins needed repairing or reconstruction (Esteves, 2013).
