Factors driving the halophyte rhizosphere bacterial communities in coastal salt marshes
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 IntroductionRoot-associated microorganisms promote plant growth and provide protection from stresses. Halophytes are the fundamental components maintaining ecosystem functions of coastal salt marshes; however, it is not clear how their microbiome are ...

Role of fish communities in particulate organic matter fluxes between salt marshes and coastal marine waters in the Mont Saint-Michel bay. [PDF]
, 1998 Among the 90 fishspecies censused in the Mont Saint-Michel Bay (France), 23 colonise and forage in the salt marshes during flood. Therefore, this environmentmay play an important trophic and nursery role for these species.

Evaluating sampling strategy for DNA barcoding study of coastal and inland halo-tolerant Poaceae and Chenopodiaceae: A case study for increased sample size. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Environmental conditions in coastal salt marsh habitats have led to the development of specialist genetic adaptations. We evaluated six DNA barcode loci of the 53 species of Poaceae and 15 species of Chenopodiaceae from China's coastal salt marsh area ...

Species-based Mapping of Carbon Stocks in Salt Marsh: Tianjin Coastal Zone as a Case Study
Ecosystem Health and Sustainability, 2023 Because of geographical position and high carbon storage potential, coastal salt marshes are recognized as an essential component of blue carbon and play an indispensable role in regulating climate and reaching carbon neutrality targets.

Feeding ecology of 0-group sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax in salt marshes of Mont Saint-Michel bay (France) [PDF]
, 2001 0-group sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax, colonize intertidal marsh creeks of Mont Saint Michel Bay, France, on spring tides (e.g., 43% of the tides) during flood and return to coastal waters during ebb.

Exploring the Impacts of Seagrass on Coupled Marsh-Tidal Flat Morphodynamics
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2018 Intertidal coastal environments are prone to changes induced by sea level rise, increases in storminess, temperature, and anthropogenic disturbances. It is unclear how changes in external drivers may affect the dynamics of low energy coastal environments
