As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.

Abstract Introduction Ecosystem restoration requires the management of invasive plants due to the harmful effects they have on both above‐ and belowground ecosystem processes. Belowground soil modifications by invasive plants, particularly those driven by plant–soil feedbacks (PSFs), are thought to significantly influence an invader's success by ...

Abstract As an ecological unit, the rhizosphere microbiome preserves an enormous and largely unexplored diversity of microbes that play essential roles in plant health and soil functions. Omics technologies encompassing high‐throughput approaches such as metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, and metaproteomics provide helpful tools to unravel the ...

Effects of land use pattern on invasive plant diversity in Guinean savanna ecosystems of Togodo protected area, Togo [PDF]
Tropical natural ecosystems host a very diverse flora and fauna and are key ecosystems for global climate and biogeochemical regulation. Unfortunately, in West African landscapes, large areas of savanna and forest have been progressively replaced or ...
