Points of discussion:

What is the current state of the science related to tropical wetlands, land use and climate change?

Where are studies being conducted? Who is doing the work?

What do we know of dominant land uses and land cover?

What is the vulnerability of these sites to climate change?

Here, and in all discussions you may desire to segregate coastal wetlands (e.g., mangroves) from freshwater wetlands (peat forests).
