The genus Arthrocardia (Corallinales, Rhodophyta) in New Zealand: Description of three new species

Phycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY Three new species of the coralline algal genus Arthrocardia (Corallinophycidae, Rhodophyta) are described from New Zealand: A. meridionalis, A. perplexa, and A. robusta. These species are difficult to distinguish based on morphoanatomical characters alone and require molecular sequence data for reliable identification.

Investigating the efficacy of tidal wetland restoration in enhancing aquatic food web resources for native fishes

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Endangered fish species, such as Delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), in the San Francisco Estuary are threatened by a multitude of anthropogenic stressors. Tidal wetland restoration can partially mitigate these stressors by increasing food availability of aquatic invertebrate prey, but the efficacy of restoration remains ...

Hydrological restoration of coastal wetlands: optimizing site selection and implementation strategies

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetlands, despite their importance in providing ecosystem services like carbon sequestration, water quality improvement, and coastal protection, have suffered extensive degradation and loss in the past two centuries. Hydrological restoration of these degraded ecosystems presents an emerging opportunity for mitigating and ...

Silverside gold mine? Restored tidal habitats host abundant invasive fishes in a novel California marsh (U.S.A.)

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Novel ecosystems, where environmental conditions have been fundamentally altered from a historic norm, require nontraditional approaches to restoration. Suisun Marsh, located within California's San Francisco Estuary (SFE), is a novel, brackish water wetland complex, where managers have begun restoring tidal connectivity to ...

Differential growth dynamics of common salt marsh species Spartina alterniflora and Juncus roemerianus under varied sediment amendments

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Many coastal wetlands are at high risk of degradation or loss due to sea‐level rise. Restoration techniques for maintaining coastal marshes are paramount, with thin‐layer placement (TLP) emerging as one feasible solution. Despite TLP's utilization, additional research is needed on species‐ and sediment‐specific responses ...

Nursery pot size, not planting density, affects vegetation performance in a restored semi‐arid wetland

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetland restoration often involves planting nursery‐grown potted plants to accelerate vegetation development, particularly when stressful conditions or insufficient source material inhibit natural recruitment. Under these conditions, planting more densely or larger, more developed plants may increase vegetation survival ...

High and dry: the persistence of diverse coastal marsh communities depends on available upland area and connection to surrounding waters

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Sea‐level‐rise and alterations to natural hydrology have contributed to coastal land loss. To combat coastal land loss and maintain the ecosystem services provided by marshes, marsh creation has been broadly implemented. Marsh creation projects can be performed in conjunction with the construction of elevated terrestrial ridges that seek to mimic ...

Global meta‐analysis highlights recovery of animal functional diversity in restored coastal ecosystems

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal ecosystems have experienced widespread global degradation, prompting substantial investment in restoration. While structural recovery is well documented, whether restoration reestablishes the functional diversity (FD) of animal communities and how recovery unfolds through time remains poorly resolved.

Spatial and temporal evolution of a coastal erg margin: the Middle Jurassic Page Sandstone, southern Utah, USA

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aeolian deflationary events are erosive to static stages where sediment supply is insufficient to support bedform migration and preservation in the rock record. In the vicinity of shallow‐marine environments, inland rises of relative water table and associated generation of deflationary super surfaces may be driven by the onset of ...
