Aquatic food webs in restored marshes: a stable‐isotope approach in the Gironde estuary (SW France)

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Intertidal marshes are important habitats for nekton. However, historical draining and dyking hampered European coastal wetlands. Marsh restoration is therefore critical not only to improve their capacity to protect coastal lines but also to rehabilitate their ecological functionalities. The benefits of intertidal marsh restoration for nekton community

Effects of European green crabs (Carcinus maenas) on transplanted Eelgrass (Zostera marina): potential protective measures

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
The global decline of seagrass causes concern regarding the loss of important ecosystem services, such as increased marine biodiversity. Consequently, restoration projects have gained popularity among scientists and local communities. However, for restoration to be successful, certain challenges must be considered and mitigated.

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...

Restoration of a marsh‐upland ecotone specialist: the role of elevation, amendment, and facilitation

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Restoration of ecotone specialists can be challenging, since ecotones are defined by steep environmental and competition gradients. Restoration success is enhanced by understanding the factors that limit the range of ecotone specialists in the transition zone.
