Plant thresholds and community composition of coastal marsh–forest ecotones in the US Northeast
Abstract Sea level rise is causing coastal salt marshes to migrate upslope into coastal forests and other terrestrial ecosystems. The factors that control marsh migration rates are not well understood, particularly in the US Northeast, where this phenomenon has received little attention. To determine the relationship between environmental variables and

There was no significant relation between the incidence of Vibrio spp. and water parameters, except ammonium in the winter season. In this study, 48.02% (85/177) isolates were positive for Vibrio cholerae, 51.97% (92/177) for Vibrio parahaemolyticus, 15.21% (14/92) for trh gene, and 6.52% (6/92) for tdh gene.
