Rhizosphere Effect Enhances Belowground Competition of Coastal Invasive <i>Spartina alterniflora</i> With Mangroves. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This work demonstrated that the rhizosphere effect intensified the belowground interspecific competition of invasive Spartina alterniflora adjacent to mangroves by altering root exudates, changing soil microbial composition, and modulating some core nutrient metabolism strategies.

Integrating MaxEnt and PLUS for Predictive Modeling of Mangrove Suitability and Land Use Impacts in Coastal Guangdong, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study integrates the MaxEnt ecological niche model with the PLUS land use change model to construct a framework for predicting mangrove suitability and simulating future land use dynamics. It evaluates the spatial conflicts between potential mangrove distribution and urban expansion under different scenarios along the coastal areas of Guangdong ...

ORCHIDEE‐MAN: Incorporating Mangrove Processes in the Global Vegetation Model of ORCHIDEE

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 17, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The mangrove ecosystem is characterized by high carbon sequestration rates and plays a crucial role for the exchange of carbon between land and ocean. Understanding the carbon dynamics of mangroves under climate change and human disturbances is therefore essential for quantifying their contributions to global carbon cycle.

Omnivorous Diets of Sympatric Duck Species in a Subtropical East Asia Wetland Unveiled by Multi‐Marker DNA Metabarcoding

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.
The East Asian–Australasian Flyway (EAAF) is experiencing significant declines in migratory waterbird populations. Understanding the foraging ecology of waterbird species, particularly ducks, is crucial for monitoring and protecting their food sources and wetland habitats.

Mangrove restoration enhances blue carbon sequestration and its stability in a subtropical tidal wetland

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 9, Page 2437-2451, September 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mangrove forests are among the most productive blue carbon (C) ecosystems. While mangrove restoration is recognized for its potential to increase coastal blue C storage, its effects on soil organic C (SOC) stability and sources remain poorly understood.

Determination of Nutrients, Biomass, and Bacterial Quantification in Different Mangroves Sites: A Comparative Study on Nutrients Dependent Biomass Production

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
The present study is hypothesis based that “mangrove biomass depends on the availability of nutrients in the mangrove ecosystem” and a baseline data from the selected locations. This research aligns with the Paris agreement and Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 12, 13, 14, and 17.

Effects of interactions among primary and secondary foundation species on biodiversity and associated community structure

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract A key foundation species, red mangroves (Rhizophora mangle), and secondary foundation species (oysters, sponges, and barnacles) that reside on mangrove prop roots are abundant along the coastline in subtropical Florida. We hypothesized the Foundation Species Interaction Biodiversity (FSIB) model, which explains the relationships between the ...
