That factor, by itself, could explain saltwater inundation increase for this area. Coupled with freshwater retention at reservoirs created on tributaries, the situation begins to mirror the Louisiana wetlands' salination invasion vis-à-vis the Mississippi/Atchafalaya basin.

All the roads of scientific observation regarding changing environmental phenomena seem to lead to a commonality, humanity's peculiar relationship with its very existence.

You know, logic and stuff, I think that sort of "discovery" should be expected when you're dealing with a species that created God in its image. Of course, one could, logically, blame it all on Caterpillar Inc. and be done with such hurtful fact-finding.
