Seacoast Marshelder, Iva imbricata

open access: yesEDIS, 2018
Seacoast marshelder is an important plant for dune restoration, stabilization, and formation because of its ability to trap sand. It grows on foredunes and forms low, rounded dunes as sand accumulates (Craig 1991).

Permanent nearshore sediment loss and inevitable retreat of cohesive bluff‐backed beaches

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 7, July 2026.
Net volume in survey control areas at the dune‐backed beach (PB) and bluff‐backed beach (LD) is shown between surveys (‘interval’), where the first point is the difference between 2012 and 2020 JABLTCX LiDAR surveys. Cumulative totals are shown as square markers. Water levels during the same dates are shown in grey.

Aquatic macrophytes as nature‐based solutions: Challenges and opportunities across inland and coastal waters

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Macrophytes are foundation species whose use as nature‐based solution (NbS) in aquatic ecosystems can help reduce climate change impacts while mitigating biodiversity loss. The discrepancy in research and application of macrophytes as NbS across inland and marine coastal ecosystems is an opportunity to expand the concept and learn from ...

N and P limitation of fynbos plants and the nutritional status of legume habitats in the Cape Floristic Region

open access: yes, 2013
In general, terrestrial ecosystems are limited by both N and P, but, as legumes fix atmospheric nitrogen, I hypothesized that fynbos legumes would be P limited and nonlegumes would be N limited, and that the degree to which these plants respond to N and ...
